Award BIOS Setup

51


IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave PIO:
The four IDE PIO (Programmed Input/Output) fields let you set a PIO mode
(0-4) for each of the four IDE devices that the onboard IDE interface
supports. Modes 0 through 4 provide successively increased performance.
In Auto mode, the system automatically determines the best mode for each
device.

The choice: Auto, Mode 0, Mode 1, Mode 2, Mode 3 and Mode 4.


IDE Primary/Secondary Master/Slave UDMA:
Ultra DMA/33 implementation is possible only if your IDE hard drive supports
it and the operating environment includes a DMA driver (Windows 95 OSR2
or a third-party IDE bus master driver). If your hard drive and your system
software both support Ultra DMA/33, select “Auto” to enable BIOS support.

The choice: Auto, Disabled.


IDE HDD Block Mode:
Block mode is also called block transfer, multiple commands, or multiple
sector read/write. If your IDE hard drive supports block mode (most new
drives do), select Enabled for automatic detection of the optimal number of
block read/writes per sector the drive can support.

The choice: Enabled, Disabled
