    when I ran Sandra Soft and I ran the performance icon, it said this

    Mainboard Information

    Warning 2533 Disabled host controllers are present. Check BIOS settings.

    CPU and BIOS Information

    Warning 2533 Processor 1 : Disabled host controllers are present. Check BIOS settings. Tip 212 System BIOS : BIOS can be shadowed so check whether it is.
    PCI, AGP, CardBus Bus(es) Information

    Warning 1206 Uniwill Computer Corp SiS5513 EIDE Controller (A,B step) : PCI latency too high. Device could hog the bus for too long.
    When I go into the BIOS setup it doesn't have these options.

    Bios on most laptops are very limited, even a BIOS update will not give you these settings.

    Don't worry
