A.7 BIOS

Organization

The BIOS ROM is a 4or 8Mbit device containing eight or sixteen symmetrical 64KB blocks. The next

figure shows how the ROM stores code and control information. The addresses shown refer to the
ROM image at the top of the 4GB-address space. Note that the system BIOS segment is
compressed in this image. When the BIOS runs, the code is uncompressed in real-time and the
resulting code and data image is found at physical address 0E0000h through 0FFFFFh.
