4. BIOS SETUP

Boot Menu

Other Boot Device Select [INT18 Device (Network)]

Configuration options: [Disabled] [SCSI/Onboard ATA Boot Device] [INT18 De-

vice (Network)] [LANDesk (R) Service Agent]

Plug & Play O/S [No]

This field allows you to use a Plug-and-Play (PnP) operating system to configure

the PCI bus slots instead of using the BIOS. When [Yes] is selected, interrupts may

be reassigned by the OS. When a non-PnP OS is installed or you want to prevent

reassigning of interrupt settings, select the default setting of [No]. Configuration

options: [No] [Yes]

Reset Configuration Data [No]

The Extended System Configuration Data (ESCD) contain information about non-

PnP devices. It can also hold the complete record of how the system was configured

the last time it was booted. Select [Yes] only if you want to clear these data during

the Power-On Self Test (POST). Configuration options: [No] [Yes]

Boot Virus Detection [Enabled]

This field allows you to set boot virus detection, ensuring a virus-free boot sector.

The system halts and displays a warning message when it detects a virus. If this

occurs, you can either allow the operation to continue or use a virus-free bootable

floppy disk to restart and investigate your system. Configuration options: [Disabled]

[Enabled]

Quick Power On Self Test [Enabled]

This field speeds up the Power-On-Self Test (POST) routine by skipping retesting a

second, third, and fourth time. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]

Boot Up Floppy Seek [Disabled]

When enabled, the BIOS will seek the floppy disk drive to determine whether the

drive has 40 or 80 tracks. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
