PCI/VGA Palette
Snoop

Advanced > Video
Configuration

Some special VGA cards, high-end hardware MPEG
decoders etc. need to be able to look at the video card's
VGA palette to determine what colors are currently in use.
Enabling this feature turns on this palette "snoop".

This option is only very rarely needed. It should be left at
Disabled unless a video device specifically requires the
setting enabled upon installation.

PCIE x16 Link Retrain

This BIOS setting may
be present on Intel®
Desktop Boards that
include PCI Express
slots.

Advanced > PCI
Express
Configuration

• GFX Card
• Disabled
• Enabled

Used to adjust configuration for devices such as PCIe
graphics cards which may need accommodations to
function properly when link training. Some PCI Express
cards may not be detected properly. Link retraining allows
the system to keep trying to train or detect and configure
the card. This setting will increase boot time.
