[. . . ] If no LAN cable is attached to the motherboard, the Status fields of all four pairs of wires will show Open and the Length fields show 0m, as shown in the figure above. If no cable problem is detected on the LAN cable connected to a Gigabit hub or a 10/100 Mbps hub, the following message will appear: Start detecting at Port. . . . . Link Detected --> 100Mbps Cable Length= 30m Link Detected Cable Length Displays transmission speed Displays the approximate length of the attached LAN cable. Note: The Gigabit hub will only operate at a speed of 10/100Mbps in MS-DOS mode; it will operate at a normal speed of 10/100/1000 Mbps in Windows mode or when the LAN Boot ROM is activated. If a cable problem occurs on a specified pair of wires, the Status field will show Short and thenlength shown will be the approximate distance to the fault or short. Example: Part1-2 Status = Short / Length = 2m Explanation: A fault or short might occur at about 2m on Part 1-2. Note: Part 4-5 and Part 7-8 are not used in a 10/100 Mbps environment, so their Status fields will show Open, and the length shown is the approximate length of the attached LAN cable. - 47 - BIOS Setup OnChip SATA Controller Enables or disables the integrated SATA controller. (Default: Enabled) OnChip SATA Type (SATA2_0~SATA2_3 connectors) Configures the operating mode of the integrated SATA controller. (Default) Enable Native IDE mode if you wish to install operating systems that support Native mode. Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) is an interface specification that allows the storage driver to enable advanced Serial ATA features such as Native Command Queuing and hot plug. OnChip SATA Port4/5 Mode (SATA2_4/SATA2_5 connectors) This option is configurable only when OnChip SATA Type is set to RAID or AHCI. Configures the operating mode of the integrated SATA2_4/SATA2_5 connectors. IDE Disables RAID for the SATA controller and configures the SATA controller to PATA mode. (Default) As SATA Type The mode depends on the OnChip SATA Type settings. Onboard Audio Function Enables or disables the onboard audio function. (Default: Auto) If you wish to install a 3rd party add-in audio card instead of using the onboard audio, set this item to Disabled. OnChip USB Controller Enables or disables the integrated USB 1. 1 controller. (Default: Enabled) USB EHCI Controller Enables or disables the integrated USB 2. 0 controller. (Default: Enabled) USB Keyboard Support Allows USB keyboard to be used in MS-DOS. (Default: Enabled) USB Mouse Support Allows USB mouse to be used in MS-DOS. (Default: Disabled) Legacy USB storage detect Determines whether to detect USB storage devices, including USB flash drives and USB hard drives during the POST. (Default: Enabled) Onboard Serial Port 1 Enables or disables the first serial port and specifies its base I/O address and corresponding interrupt. Options are: Auto, 2F8/IRQ3, 3F8/IRQ4(default), 3E8/IRQ4, 2E8/IRQ3, Disabled. Onboard Parallel Port Enables or disables the onboard parallel port (LPT) and specifies its base I/O address and corresponding interrupt. Options are: 378/IRQ7 (default), 278/IRQ5, 3BC/IRQ7, Disabled. GA-MA770-UD3/US3 Motherboard - 48 - Parallel Port Mode Selects an operating mode for the onboard parallel (LPT) port. Options are: SPP (Standard Parallel Port)(default), EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port), ECP (Extended Capabilities Port), ECP+EPP. ECP Mode Use DMA Selects DMA channel for the LPT port in ECP mode. This item is configurable only if Parallel Port Mode is set to ECP or ECP+EPP mode. [. . . ] GIGABYTE cannot, however, assume any responsibility for errors or omissions in this text.
