S.M.A.R.T for Hard Disks
S.M.A.R.T is abbreviation of Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology. It is reliable and precautious
technology. When Hard Disk disorder, it prevents Hard Disk from the loss of data.
Boot Up Num-Lock
This item is used to activate the Num-Lock function upon system boot. If the setting is on, after a boot, the
Num-Lock light is lit, and user can use the number key.
Floppy Drive Swap
The option reverses the drive letter assignments of your floppy disk drives in the Swap A, B setting, otherwise
leave on the setting of Disabled (No Swap). This works separately from the BIOS Features floppy disk swap
feature. It is functionally the same as physically interchanging the connectors of the floppy disk drives. When
<Enabled>, the BIOS swapped floppy drive assignments so that Drive A becomes Drive B, and Drive B becomes
Drive A under DOS.
Floppy Drive Seek
If the <Floppy Drive Seek> item is setting Enabled, the BIOS will seek the floppy <A> drive one time upon boot up.
PS/2 Mouse Support
The setting of Enabled allows the system to detect a PS/2 mouse on boot up. If detected, IRQ12 will be used for
the PS/2 mouse. IRQ 12 will be reserved for expansion cards if a PS/2 mouse is not detected. Disabled will
reserve IRQ12 for expansion cards and therefore the PS/2 mouse will not function.
Primary Display
The option is used to set the type of video display card installed in the system.

executed. If Always is chosen, a user password prompt appears every time the computer is turned on. If Setup

caching feature. If user chooses Enabled setting, only BIOS shadow function is active.
