Yes No Yes No 32, 64 , 96, 128, 160, 192, 224, 248 Yes No Enabled Disabled Toggles the option of letting the OS take care of IRQ routing or the BIOS. Palette Snooping can fix color problems associated with non-standard video cards such as MPEG decoders. Toggles the onboard IDE controllers to operate in BusMaster mode. Plug & Play OS Reset Config Data PCI Latency Timer Allocate IRQ to PCI VGA Palette Snooping PCI IDE BusMaster Offboard PCI/ISA IDE Card IRQ 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 14, 15 DMA Channel 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 Enabled Disabled Auto Enables the system to recognize and boot Enabled from an add-in IDE controller card. Disabled These settings enable you to set which IRQs will be reserved for other de vices other than the ones that use them by default. These settings enable DMA channel 0 and 1 to be enabled or disabled. 3. 11 ­ Chipset Options related to the chipset can be altered through the following. CPU Configurati on North Bridge ICH3 South Bridge Intel PCI-64 Hub 2 All settings discussed in following sections. 31 http://www. TYAN. com 3. 12 ­ CPU Configuration Options related to the CPU chipset settings can be altered through the following. CPU Ratio Status CPU Ratio Actual Value Unlocked 20 Au to detects CPU speed. It is recommended to leave as default (255), because changing CPU ratios may render your system inoperable. If an invalid ratio is set in CMOS then actual and setpoint values may differ. To modify, hit backspace and type new ratio. CPU Ratio CMOS Setting 255 Hyper-Threading Enable This setting allows you to take advantage of Hyper-Threading enabled Xeon processors. Enabling Hyper-Threading allows a compatible Xeon processor to process applications that are written for a multi-processor system even if you are using only one Xeon processor. 3. 13 ­ ICH3 Chipset Configuration Please leave all options in this section at their default setting because they are crucial to the stability of the system. ICH3 Dev31 Func1, IDE ICH3 Dev31 Func3, SMBUS ICH3 Dev29 Func0, USB#1 ICH3 Dev29 Func1, USB#2 ICH3 Dev29 Func2, USB#3 LPC 2Eh-2Fh Decode [Enabled] [Disabled] [Enabled] [Disabled] [Enabled] [Disabled] [Enabled] [Disabled] [Enabled] [Disabled] [Enabled] [Disabled] [Enabled] [Disabled] [Enabled] [Disabled] [Enabled] [Disabled] Controls IDE On/Off Controls SMBUS On/Off Enables external USB 1 Enables internal USB 2 Enables internal USB 3 LPC 2Eh-2Fh Decode Super I/O address.

I/O Port Decode RAS Sticky Error Handling IOAPIC Support in MP Table VGA Decode This option allows you to adjust the decode size of the I/O ports. This option allows you to define how RAS errors are handled and whether they are corrected or left as is. This option allows you to adjust settings for IOAPIC functions that relate to multi -processor handling. Please leave this option at its default setting. 3. 15 ­ ACPI Options related to power management settings can be altered through the following options. ACPI Aware O/S ACPI Advanced After Power Fail Power button instant off Enable Disable Enabled Disabled Yes No Defines whether the OS can manage IRQs, DMAs, and other system settings on its own. All settings discussed in following sections Allows system to reboot after a power failure. Choose between instant on/off or a 4 second delay. 3. 16 ­ ACPI Advanced Options related to advanced power management settings interface can be altered through the following options. [. . . ] Standby mode: in this mode, the video and hard drives shut down; all other devices continue to operate normally. Striping: see RAID UltraDMA-33/66/100: a fast version of the old DMA channel. Without proper UltraDMA controller, your system cannot take advantage of higher data transfer rates of the new UltraDMA/UltraATA hard drives. This one port type can function as a serial, parallel, mouse, key board or joystick port. [. . . ]
