Onboard Serial Port 1 (3F8H/IRQ4) Settings are 3F8H/IRQ4, 2F8H/IRQ3, 3E8H/IRQ4, 2E8H/IRQ10, and Disabled for the onboard serial connector. Onboard Serial Port 2 (2F8H/IRQ3) Settings are 3F8H/IRQ4, 2F8H/IRQ3, 3E8H/IRQ4, 2E8H/IRQ10, and Disabled for the onboard serial connector. Onboard Parallel Port (378H/IRQ7) This field sets the address of the onboard parallel port connector. You can select either: 3BCH / IRQ 7, 378H / IRQ 7, 278H / IRQ 5, Disabled. If you install an I/O card with a parallel port, ensure that there is no conflict in the address assignments. The PC can support up to three parallel ports as long as there are no conflicts for each port. Parallel Port Mode (ECP+EPP) This field allows you to set the operation mode of the parallel port. The setting Normal, allows normal-speed operation but in one direction only; EPP allows bidirectional parallel port operation at maximum speed; ECP allows the parallel port to operate in bidirectional mode and at a speed faster than the maximum data transfer rate; ECP+EPP allows normal speed operation in a two-way mode. ECP DMA Select (3) This selection is available only if you select ECP or ECP+EPP in the Parallel Port Mode. Select either DMA Channel 1, 3, or Disable. NOTE: Screen saver software does not work with this feature. While the monitor is shut off, this software cannot display. Suspend Switch (Enabled) This field enables or disables the SMI connector on the motherboard. This connector connects to the lead from the Suspend switch mounted on the system case. Doze Speed, Stdby Speed (8/32) These two fields set the CPU speed during each mode. The number indicates what the normal CPU speed is divided by. PM Timers (Disabled) This section controls the time-out settings for the Power Management scheme. The fields included in this section are "HDD Power Down", which places the hard disk into its lowest power consumption mode, and the Doze, Standby and Suspend system inactivation modes. The system automatically "wakes up" from any power saving mode when there is system activity such as when a key is pressed from the keyboard, or when there is activity detected from the enabled IRQ channels. BIOS (Power Management) 47 HDD Power Down shuts down any IDE hard disk drives in the system after a period of inactivity. This time period is user-configurable to 1-15 Mins or Disable. [. . . ] (e. g. , the screen does not come up, or it displays garbage. ) Quick memory test error Run Detailed RAM Test to confirm the error and identify the address of the error. Run Detailed RAM Test several times to confirm the error and take notes of any messages and error codes. An error has occurred while testing the DAC LookUp Table. The problem should be visible on the top color bar of any 8bpp mode. [. . . ]
