4.BIOS CONFIGURATION
Award's BIOS ROM has a built-in Setup program that allows users to modify
the basic system configuration. This type of information is stored in battery-
backed CMOS SRAM so that it retains the Setup information when the power
is turned off.

Power ON the computer and press <Del> immediately will allow you to enter
Setup. If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to
enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or
pressing the "RESET" bottom on the system case. You may also restart by
simultaneously press <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Del> keys.

display-only
month The month, Jan. through Dec.
date The date, from 1 to 31 (or the maximum allowed in the
month)
year The year, from 1994 through 2079
•Time
The times format in <hour> <minute> <second>. The time is calculated
base on the 24-hour military-time clock. For example, 1 p.m. is
13:00:00.

•Primary HDDs / Secondary HDDs
The category identifies the types of hard disk from drive C to F that has
been installed in the computer. There are two types: auto type, and user
definable type. User type is user-definable; Auto type which will
automatically detect HDD type.
Note that the specifications of your drive must match with the drive
table. The hard disk will not work properly if you enter improper
information for this category.
If you select User Type, related information will be asked to enter to the
following items. Enter the information directly from the keyboard and
press <Enter>. Such information should be provided in the
documentation form your hard disk vendor or the system manufacturer.
CYLS. Number of cylinders
HEADS number of heads
PRECOMP write precomp
LANDZONE Landing zone
SECTORS number of sectors
If a hard disk has not been installed select NONE and press <Enter>.
•Drive A type / Drive B type
The category identifies the types of floppy disk drive A or drive B that
has been installed in the computer.
None No floppy drive installed
360K, 5.25 in. 5.25 inch PC-type standard drive; 360K byte
capacity.
1.2M, 5.25 in. 5.25 inch AT-type high-density drive; 1.2M byte
capacity (3.5 inch when 3 Mode is Enabled).
720K, 3.5 in. 3.5 inch double-sided drive; 720K byte capacity

system will be stopped and you will be prompted
All, But Keyboard The system boot will not stop for a keyboard
error; it will stop for all other errors
All, But Diskette The system boot will not stop for a disk error; it
will stop for all other errors

All, But Disk/Key The system boot will not stop for a keyboard or
disk error; it will stop for all other errors
•Memory
The category is display-only which is determined by POST (Power On
Self Test) of the BIOS.
Base Memory
The POST of the BIOS will determine the amount of base (or
conventional) memory installed in the system.
The value of the base memory is typically 512 K for systems
with 512 K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for
systems with 640 K or more memory installed on the
motherboard.
Extended Memory
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present
during the POST.
This is the amount of memory located above 1 MB in the CPU's
memory address map.
Expanded Memory
Expanded Memory in memory defined by the
Lotus/Intel/Microsoft (LIM) standard as EMS.
Many standard DOS applications can not utilize memory above
640 K; the Expanded Memory Specification (EMS) swaps
memory, which not utilized by DOS with a section, or frame, so
these applications, can access all of the system memory.
Memory can be swapped by EMS is usually 64 K within 1 MB or
memory above 1 MB, depends on the chipset design.
Expanded memory device driver is required to use memory as
Expanded Memory.
Other Memory
This refers to the memory located in the 640 K to 1024 K
BX2000
4-8
address space. This is memory that can be used for different
applications.
DOS uses this area to load device drivers to keep as much
base memory free for application programs. Most use for this
area is Shadow RAM.

RSystem will detect automatically and show up when you install the Pentium
III processor.
•Virus Warning
If it is set to enable, the category will flash on the screen when there is
any attempt to write to the boot sector or partition table of the hard disk
drive. The system will halt and the warning message will appear in the
mean time. You can run anti-virus program to locate the problem.
Default value is Disabled.
Enabled Activate automatically when the system boots up causing
a warning message to appear when anything attempts to
access the boot sector or hard disk partition table
Disabled No warning message to appear when anything attempts to
access the boot sector or hard disk partition table
