5.3 ADVANCED CMOS SETUP
The <Advanced CMOS Setup> option consists of configuration entries that allow you to improve your system
performance, or let you set up some system features according to your preference. Some entries here are
required by the CPU board’s design to remain in their default settings.
Advanced CMOS Setup
Quick Boot
This category speeds up Power On Self Test (POST) after you power on the computer. If it is set to Enabled,
BIOS will shorten or skip some check items during POST.
1st Boot Device
2nd Boot Device
3rd Boot Device
These options determine where the system looks first for an operating system.
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.
