FPC 8084 Users Manual
Virus Warning
This item protects the boot sector and partition table of the hard disk
against accidental modifications. If an attempt is made, the BIOS will halt
the system and display a warning message. If this occurs, the user can
either continue the operation or run an anti-virus program to locate and
remove the problem.
NOTE:
Many disk diagnostic programs, which attempt to access the
boot sector table, can cause the virus warning. Thus,
disable the Virus Warning feature while running any of these
programs..
CPU Internal Cache / External Cache
Cache memory is additional memory that is much faster than
conventional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type and up
contain internal cache memory, and most, but not all, modern PCs have
additional (external) cache memory. When the CPU requests data, the
system transfers the requested data from the main DRAM into cache
memory, for even faster access by the CPU. These items are used to
enable (speed up memory access) or disable the cache function. By
default, these are
