System BIOS and Setup Power On Self Test The POST can be selected to either run only a ‘Quick’ set of tests or a more thorough (but longer) ‘Enhanced’ set. Virus Detection If this option is ‘Enabled’, each time the computer boots the BIOS will check the startup device to find if a boot sector virus has crept in. This is not an infallible check against the newer types of viruses, but it can help. Advanced Setup Any settings changed here, if incorrect, may cause the system to halt or may cause your software to malfunction. A warning about this appears on the screen when you choose Advanced Setup from the menu. Cache Control A simple dialog allows you to enable or disable the computer’s memory cache. Some older software is speed sensitive and on rare occasions you may need to disable the cache. ROM Shadowing To shadow ROM means to copy its contents into the computer system or random-access memory (RAM). ROM has longer access times and the processor can access RAM faster than ROM. Also, the contents of RAM can be cached for even greater performance. All of the computer system BIOS ROM is shadowed. The ROM Shadowing option allows you to shadow video BIOS and up to three 32 Kbytes areas of expansion card ROM (that is, ROM fitted on ISA or PCI expansion cards) addressed between C8000h and DFFFFh. Caution Shadowing is only appropriate for expansion card ROM. It must not be enabled for expansion card RAM. FT1200 OWNER’S HANDBOOK 7/9
