“STANDARD CMOS SETUP” displays a screen with a list of entries. Follow
the on-screen instructions to move around the screen. Instructions at the
bottom of the screen list the controls for this screen. Use the arrow keys to
move between fields, and the <Page Up> (‘PU’), <Page Down> (‘PD’) or
plus and minus keys to change the option shown in the selected field. Press
<Shift> + <F2> changes the color scheme of the display, and <Esc> exits
this level and returns to the main screen.
Modifiable fields appear in a different color. If you need information about
what changes to make, press the <F1> key. The help menu will then give you
information on the item highlighted. The display of available memory at the
lower right-hand side of the screen functions automatically.
Date & Time
The first two lines on the screen are the date and time settings for the
system clock.
Hard Drive Type
You must enter the specifications of all non-SCSI hard disk drives installed
in your system. MFM, ESDI and IDE hard disk all need to have their
specifications recorded here. The onboard PCI IDE connectors provide two
channels, Primary and Secondary for connecting up to four IDE hard disks
need to be entered here.
If you have one more SCSI hard disks installed in your system, you do not
need to enter specifications here. SCSI drives operate using device drivers
and are not supported directly by any current PC BIOS. If your mainboard has
the SCSI controller card option, and you will use it, see the SCSI instructions
that follow later in this section. If you have some other SCSI controller, follow
the instructions that came with it on how to install any required SCSI driver.
They are four hard disks listed “Primary Master”, “Primary Slave”,
“Secondary Master” and “Secondary Slave”. For each IDE channel, the first
device is the ‘master’ and the second device the ‘slave’.
To enter the specifications for an MFM or ESDI hard disk drive, you must first
select a ‘type’. You can select the “User” option and enter the specifications
yourself manually or there are 45 predefined drive specifications, which you
can look through to see if the specifications for your drive are assigned a
type number. Do this by using the <Page Up> or <Page Down> key to
change the option listed after the drive letter.
For an IDE hard drive, you should use the auto -detection utility described
later to enter the drive specifications automatically. If you want to do this,
leave the drive set to “None”. You can enter the specifications yourself
manually by using the user option if you want to.
