Advanced Chipset Features

DRAM default timings have been carefully chosen and should ONLY
be changed if data is being lost. Please first contact technical sup-
port

2.2.3.1 System BIOS Cacheable

Selecting “Enabled” allows caching of the system BIOS ROM at F0000h- FFFFFh, resulting

in better system performance. However, if any pro- gram writes data to this memory area, a

system error may occur. The Choices are “Enabled”, and “Disabled”.

2.2.3.2 Memory Hole at 15M-16M

Enabling this feature reserves 15 MB to 16 MB memory address space for ISA expansion

cards that specifically require this setting. This makes memory from 15 MB and up

unavailable to the system. Expansion cards can only access memory up to 16 MB. The

default setting is “Disabled”.
