3.5.4 DRAM RAS# Precharge
When the DRAM Timing Selectable is set to [Manual], this field is
adjustable. This setting controls the number of cycles for Row Address
Strobe (RAS) to be allowed to precharge. If no sufficient time is allowed
for the RAS to accumulate its charge before DRAM refresh, refreshing
may be incomplete and DRAM may fail to retain data. This item applies
only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system. Setting options
are [2T] to [5T], and [Auto].

3.5.5 Precharge Delay (t RAS)
This item allows you to select the value in this field, depending on
whether the board has paged DRAMs or EDO (extended data output)
DRAMs. The choices are: “4” to “15” and “Auto”.

3.5.6 System Memory Frequency
To adjust the frequency of memory. The choices are: "533MHz",
"667MHz" and "Auto".
"667MHz" and "Auto".
3.5.7 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”.

gram writes data to this memory area, a system error may occur. The
Choices are “Enabled”, and “Disabled”.
3.5.8 Video BIOS Cacheable
Selecting “Enabled” allows caching of the video BIOS, resulting in better
system performance. However, if any program writes to this memory area,
a system error may occur. The choices are “Enabled”, and “Dis- abled”.

3.5.9 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”.
