Unused Memory

This item is informational, showing the amount of memory not currently allocated to the
other memory items. Unused memory should always equal 0 (zero). Use the guidelines
for allocating memory in the next section to make the Unused item equal 0.

Guidelines for Allocating Memory

Consider the following guidelines when allocating memory among the memory items.

1.

Set Shadow ROM to Yes unless your application program needs the 128
KB that Shadow ROM uses.

2.

Move the highlight to the memory item you want to reduce and press the
Space bar to select the new value you want. Note that the difference is
added to the Unused item value.

3.

Move the highlight to the memory item you want to increase and press
the Space bar to select the new value you want. Note that the difference
is subtracted from the Unused item value.

4.

Check that the Unused item equals 0 (zero). If not, repeat steps 2 and 3
as necessary.

Note:

Do not exit the Setup Program with the Unused item showing any value except

0. Allocate memory to the other memory items until Unused equals 0; otherwise, the
computer will report an error condition the next time you try to start it.
