seconds to execute, and system reset is required for ISC results to be applied. The Enabled - No Reboot
option executes ISC and continues without applying ISC results until the next time system reset occurs.
The Enabled option executes ISC and forces an immediate system reset so that ISC results can be applied
right away. It takes the system longer to be ready due to the forced system reset. When disabled, ISC will
not execute.
R530, R530XD, R430, T430, R330, T330, R230, and T130 do not support ISC.

This field determines whether the system boots with Num Lock enabled or disabled. This does not apply
to 84-key keyboards. When Num Lock is On, the rightmost keys on the keyboard function like those on a
numeric calculator. With Num Lock Off, they function as cursor-control keys.

BIOS.MiscSettings.PowerCycleRequest (Read or Write)
Description
This feature allows you to mimic a one-time AC power cycle. You will rarely need to use this feature.
You may be directed to use it by Dell support. This feature is usually set to None. When you change it
to Virtual AC, the system will do its best to mimic a temporary removal of AC power from the system
(the AC Power Recovery feature will not be triggered by this action). The effect of this action is that
some of the hardware components of the system that are always powered on when AC is present (even
when the system appears to be off) will be reset. Using this feature is much more convenient than having
to physically remove and reinsert the AC power cord, which would then trigger the AC Power Recovery
feature when the cord was reinserted.
