Caution
Changing settings in the Advanced setup menu may result in an unstable
or unbootable controller. If this happens, restore BIOS settings to the factory
defaults.
The Advanced setup menu includes the following submenus:
•
SATA Configuration—Use this setting to access the SATA Configuration submenu.
•
CPU Configuration—Use this setting to access the CPU Configuration submenu.
•
Video Configuration—Use this setting to access the Video Configuration submenu.
•
Power/Wake Configuration—Use this setting to access the Power/Wake Configuration
submenu.
•
USB Configuration—Use this setting to access the USB Configuration submenu.
•
Intel AMT Configuration—Use this setting to access the AMT Configuration submenu.
•
Serial Port Configuration—Use this setting to access the Serial Port Configuration
submenu.
•
Serial Port Console Redirection—Use this setting to access the Serial Port Console
Redirection submenu.
SATA Configuration Submenu
The SATA configuration submenu contains the hard disk drive (HDD) interfaces settings. The
factory default settings provide the most compatible and optimal configuration.
•
SATA Mode Selection—This setting determines whether AHCI mode is enabled or
disabled for the SATA port. Some operating systems, such as Windows 2000, do not
support AHCI mode. You can use this setting to disable AHCI mode and enable IDE
mode so that non-compatible OSes function correctly. The default value is
AHCI
.
•
Onboard Storage—This item displays the onboard drive detected in the system.
CPU Configuration Submenu
Use this submenu to apply alternate settings to the CPU. Normally, you do not need to modify
these settings, as the factory default settings provide the most compatible and optimal
configuration possible.
•
Enabled CPU Cores—This setting selects the number of active CPU cores for the
processor. Valid values are 2 and 1. The default value is
2
.
•
C-States—This setting enables or disables CPU power management. The default value is
Disabled
when booting LabVIEW Real-Time,
Enabled
when booting other OSes.
Enabling C-States allows the processor to put idle CPU cores to sleep, allowing active
cores to run at higher than base frequencies when Turbo Boost is enabled (if applicable).
Enabling C-States can cause control algorithms to behave less deterministically.
•
Hardware Prefetcher—This setting enables or disables CPU cache hardware prefetching.
The default value is
Enabled
.
•
Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch—This setting enables or disables prefetching of adjacent
cache lines from memory to the CPU cache. The default value is
Enabled
.
