CPU Internal Cache / External Cache
Cache memory is additional memory that is much faster than conventional
DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type up contain internal cache
memory, and most, but not all, modern PCs have an additional (external)
cache memory. When the CPU requests data, the system transfers the
requested data from the main DRAM into cache memory, for faster access by
the CPU.

Halt On
This field allows you to decide which errors, detected during the Power On Self

Base Memory / Extended Memory / Total Memory
This field displays the amount of memory detected by the system during boot
up. This is a display only field. You cannot make any changes to this field.
Base Memory:
Indicates the memory installed below the conventional
1MB space.
Extended Memory:
Indicates the memory installed above the 1MB space.
Total Memory:
Indicates the total memory installed in the PC system.
Virus Warning
When you enable the virus warning you will receive a warning message
whenever a program (specifically, a virus) attempts to write to the boot sector
or the partition table of the hard disk drive. If you receive such a message you
should immediately run an anti-virus program. Keep in mind that this feature
only
protects the boot sector and not the entire hard drive.
NOTE! Many disk diagnostic programs that access the boot sector ta-
ble can trigger the virus-warning message. If you plan to run such a
program, we recommend that you first disable the virus warning.
