CHAPTER 3  
Description of the item on screen follows:  
Clear ESCD  
During Yes, this will clear ESCD data on every boot.  
PCI VGA Palette Snoop  
When this option is set to Enabled, multiple VGA devices operating  
on different buses can handle data from the CPU on each set of palette  
registers on every video device. Bit 5 of the command register in the PCI  
device configuration space is the VGA Palette Snoop bit (0 is disabled). For  
example, if there are two VGA devices in the computer (one PCI and ISA)  
and the Bit settings are:  
Disabled-Data read and written by the CPU is only directed to  
the PCI VGA device’s palette registers.  
Enabled - Data read and written by the CPU is directed to  
both the PCI VGA device’s palette registers and the  
ISA VGA device palette registers, permitting the  
palette registers of both devices to be identical.  
This option must be set to Enabled if an ISA adapter card requires  
VGA palette snooping. The settings are Enabled or Disabled.  
DMA Channel 0/1/3/5/6/7  
These options specify the bus that the specified DMA channel is  
used. These options allow you to reserve DMAs for legacy ISA adapter  
cards.  
These options determine if AMI® BIOS should remove a DMA from  
the available DMAs passed to devices that are configurable by the system  
BIOS. The available DMA pool is determined by reading the ESCD  
NVRAM. If more DMAs must be removed from the pool, the end user can  
use these options to reserve the DMA by assigning an ISA/EISA setting to  
it.

IRQ3/IRQ4/IRQ5/RQ7/IRQ9/IRQ10/IRQ11/IRQ14/IRQ15  
These options specify the bus that the specified IRQ line is used on.  
These options allow you to reserve IRQs for legacy ISA adapter cards.  
These options determine if AMI® BIOS should remove an IRQ from  
the pool of available IRQs passed to devices that are configurable by the  
system BIOS. The available IRQ pool is determined by reading the ESCD  
NVRAM. If more IRQs must be removed from the pool, the end user can use  
these options to reserve the IRQ by assigning an ISA/EISA setting to it.  
Onboard I/O is configured by AMI® BIOS. All IRQs used by onboard I/O  
are configured as PCI/PnP. If all IRQs are set to ISA/EISA and IRQ14 and 15  
are allocated to the onboard PCI IDE, IRQ9 will still be available for PCI and  
PnP devices, because at least one IRQ must be available for PCI and PnP  
devices. The settings are ISA/EISA or PCI/PnP. The Optimal and Fail-Safe  
default settings are IRQ3 through 7 are ISA/EISA. The Optimal and Fail-Safe  
default settings PCI/PnP.

ing with its own special components. This section covers some very  
technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced users  
should make any changes to the default settings.

Reset Configuration Data  
Normally, you leave this field to Disabled. Select Enabled to reset  
Extended System Configuration Data (ESCD) when you exit Setup if you  
have installed a new add-on and the system reconfiguration has caused such  
a serious conflict that the operating system can not boot.  
The settings are Enabled and Disabled .  
Resource Controlled By  
The Award Plug and Play BIOS has the capacity to automatically  
configure all of the boot and Plug and Play compatible devices. However,  
this capability means absolutely nothing unless you are using a Plug and  
Play operating system such as Windows 95/98. If you set this field to  
“manual” choose specific resources by going into each of the sub menu that  
follows this field (a sub menu is preceded by a “Ø”). The settings are Auto  
(ESCD) and Manual.  
IRQ Resources  
When resources are controlled manually, assign each system inter-  
rupt a type, depending on the type of device using the interrupt.  
PCI/VGA Palette Snoop  
Leave this field at Disabled. The settings are Enabled and  
Disabled.

Set Supervisor/User Password  
You can set either supervisor or user password, or both of them. The  
differences are:  
Supervisor password: Can enter and change the options of the setup  
menus.  
User password:  
Can only enter but do not have the right to change  
the options of the setup menus. When you select  
this function, the following message will appear at  
the center of the screen to assist you in creating a  
password.  
ENTER PASSWORD:  
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>. The  
password typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS  
memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again  
and press <Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not  
enter a password.  
To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the  
password. A message will confirm the password will be disabled. Once the  
password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.  
PASSWORD DISABLED.  
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every  
time you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from chang-  
ing any part of your system configuration.

CHAPTER 4  
AWARD® BIOS SETUP  
Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to  
request a password every time your system is rebooted. This would prevent  
unauthorized use of your computer.  
You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features  
Setup Menu and its Security option. If the Security option is set to  
“System”, the password will be required both at boot and at entry to Setup.  
If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter Setup.
