Report No FDD for Win95
If the BIOS is set to report no FDD under Windows 95 there will be an error
message suggesting that a Floppy drive has not been installed. By leaving
this setting off disables the warning.
Video BIOS Shadow
Software that resides in a read-only memory (ROM) chip on a device is called
firmware. The EliteBIOS permits shadowing of firmware such as the system
BIOS, video BIOS, and similar operating instructions that come with some
expansion peripherals, such as, for example, a SCSI adaptor.
Shadowing copies firmware from ROM into system RAM, where the CPU can
read it through the 16-bit or 32-bit DRAM bus. Firmware not shadowed must
be read by the system through the 8-bit X-bus. Shadowing improves the
performance of the system BIOS and similar ROM firmware for expansion
peripherals, but it also reduces the amount of high memory (640 KB to 1 MB)
available for loading device drivers, etc.
Enable shadowing into each section of memory separately. Many system
designers hardwire shadowing of the system BIOS and eliminate a System
BIOS Shadow option.
Video BIOS shadows into memory area C0000-C7FFF. The remaining areas
shown on the BIOS Features Setup screen may be occupied by other expan-
sion card firmware. If an expansion peripheral in your system contains ROM-
based firmware, you need to know the address range the ROM occupies to
shadow it into the correct area of RAM.
