(BIOS Features)
Video ROM BIOS Shadow (Enabled)
This field allows you to change the video BIOS location from ROM to RAM. Relocat-
ing to RAM enhances system performance, as information access is faster than the ROM.
C8000 - CBFFF Shadow to DC000 - DFFFF Shadow (Disabled)
These fields are used for shadowing other expansion card ROMs. If you install other
expansion cards with ROMs on them, you will need to know which addresses the
ROMs use to shadow them specifically. Shadowing a ROM reduces the memory
available between 640KB and 1024KB by the amount used for this purpose.
