A few notes about DMA compatibility:
Only the first 4 megs of EXPANDED memory are DMA compatible. This does not include RAM on your motherboard
which is also DMA compatible. The computer hardware is well aware of this and no special workarounds are needed.
This means it will do DMA when it can, and won't when it cant. You can use all 8 meg of RAM and have the Apple
High Speed or RAMFast card configured with DMA active.
