Advanced Setup Menu
This menu contains BIOS settings that normally do not require modification. If you
have specific problems such as unbootable disks or resource conflicts, you may
need to examine these settings.
Caution Changing settings in this menu may result in an unstable or
unbootable controller. If this happens, follow the procedures outlined in
the System CMOS section to restore BIOS settings to their factory defaults.
