List of features

Silent Drives

Hard disks and optical drives (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD etc.) are besides the fans
some of the greatest sources of noise in a PC. The BIOS-Setup can be used to switch

these drives into a quieter mode.

Recovery BIOS

If an error occurs during a BIOS update (e. g. due to a power failure), the system
BIOS will be destroyed. All Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards are equipped
with a recovery BIOS. With it a destroyed BIOS can easily be restored. Exact
instructions are provided in the chapter "BIOS Recovery - Recovering System
BIOS".

DeskUpdate

DeskUpdate enables simple, automatic driver installation. The function is available

both on the CD "Drivers & Utilities" and on the Internet.

Multi Boot

The BIOS of the Fujitsu Siemens Computers mainboards enables booting from all
types mass storage devices. In addition to IDE hard disks, this also includes optical
drives, such as CD-ROM, DVD and external drives that can be connected to USB or
FireWire.

USB Security

USB Security is a BIOS function that offers protection against unauthorised access

regardless of the operating system used. If USB Security is activated, the system can

only be started, if the MemoryBird of Fujitsu Siemens Computers is connected to one
of the existing USB-ports.
