Using BIOS
MPS Version Control For OS (1.4)
The BIOS supports versions 1.1 and 1.4 of the Intel multiprocessor specification.
Select the version supported by the operation system running on the computer.
OS Select For DRAM > 64 MB (Non-OS2)
This item is only required if you have installed more than 64 MB of memory and
you are running the OS/2 operating system. Otherwise, leave this item at the
default.
Report No FDD For WIN 95 (No)
Set this item to the default if you are running a system with no floppy drive and using
Windows 95; this ensures compatibility with the Windows 95 logo certification.
Small Logo (EPA) Show (Disabled)
Enables or disables the display of the EPA logo during boot.
Advanced Chipset Features
These items define critical timing parameters of the motherboard. You should leave
the items on this page at their default values unless you are very familiar with the
technical specifications of your system hardware. If you change the values incor-
rectly, you may introduce fatal errors or recurring instability into your system.
DRAM Timing Selectable (By SPD)
The value in this field depends on performance parameters of the installed memory
chips (DRAM). Do not change the value from the factory setting unless you install
new memory that has a different performance rating than the original DRAMs.
APIC Mode (Enabled)
This option enables or disables APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller)
functionality. The APIC is an Intel chip that provides symmetric multi-processing
(SMP) for its Pentium systems.
