Table 3-5 Computer Setup—Advanced (continued)

Bus Options On some models, allows you to enable or disable:

● PCI SERR# Generation. Default is enable.

●

PCI VGA Palette Snooping, which sets the VGA palette snooping bit in PCI configuration

space; only needed when more than one graphics controller is installed. Default is disable.

Device Options Allows you to set:

●

Num Lock State at Power-On (off/on). Default is on.

●

Parallel Port Mode (EPP+ECP, Output-only, Bi-directional).

● Multi-Processor (enable/disable). Use this option to disable multi-processor support under

the OS. Default is enabled.

●

Hyper-threading (Enable/disable). Provides processor parallelization such that the operating

system treats one processor as two. Default is enable.

●

NIC Option ROM Download (enable/disable). The BIOS contains an embedded NIC option

ROM to allow the unit to boot through the network to a PXE server. This is typically used to

download a corporate image to a hard drive. The NIC option ROM takes up memory space

below 1 MB commonly referred to as DOS Compatibility Hole (DCH) space. This space is

limited. This F10 option will allow users to disable the downloading of this embedded NIC

option ROM thus giving more DCH space for additional PCI cards which may need option

ROM space. Default is-enable.

●

Processor Frequency Multiplier. Accessible using CTRL+A. The frequency multiplier adapts

the external frequency of the computer to the internal frequency of the processor. This

setting lets you overclock your computer.
