[. . . ] Disabled / Enabled System BIOS Cacheable Enabling this option will cause the BIOS code from ROM to be copied on to the much faster RAM at location F0000h-FFFFFh, thus increasing system performance. However, if any program writes to this memory area, a system error may result.

Select Enabled to activate the primary and/or secondary onboard IDE interface. Select Disabled to deactivate this interface, if you install a primary and/or secondary add-in IDE interface. Enabled / Disabled Primary 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. In Auto mode, the system automatically determines the best mode for each device. Auto / Mode 0 ~ Mode 4 Primary Master / Slave UDMA This option allows you to select the mode of operation for the Ultra DMA/33 implementation. This is possible only if your IDE hard drive supports UDMA and the operating environment includes a DMA driver (Windows 95 OSR2 or a third party IDE bus master driver). Auto / Disabled IDE DMA transfer access This feature is used to enable the function of IDE DMA transfer access. Disabled / Enabled 59 http://www. tyan. com Serial-ATA 1/2 This option allows you to enable the function of Serial ATA 1/2. Enabled / Disabled IDE Prefetch Mode This option is used to enable the IDE Prefetch Mode.

Auto / Disabled MAC Media Interface This option allows you to set the MAC media interface. Pin Strap / MII / RGMII IDE HDD Block Mode The IDE HDD Block Mode feature speeds up hard disk access by transferring data from multiple sectors at once instead of using the old single sector transfer mode. [. . . ] Standby mode: in this mode, the video and hard drives shut down; all other devices continue to operate normally. Without a 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, keyboard or joystick port. It is fast enough to support video transfer, and is capable of supporting up to 127 daisy-chained peripheral devices. [. . . ]
