This section allows users to configure the system based on the specific features of 
the installed chipset.  This chipset manages bus speeds and accesses to system 
memory resources, such as DRAM and the external cache.  It also coordinates 
communications between the conventional ISA bus and the PCI bus.  It must be 
stated that these items should never need to be altered.  The default settings 
have been chosen because they provide the best operating conditions for the 
system. 
 
DRAM Timing Selectable 
 
The first chipset settings deal with CPU access to dynamic random access 
memory (DRAM).  The default timings have been carefully chosen and should 
only be altered if data is being lost.  Such a scenario might well occur if the 
system had mixed speed DRAM chips installed so that greater delays may be 
required to preserve the integrity of the data held in the slower memory chips. 
 
CAS Latency Time 
 
When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS latency 
depends on the DRAM timing. 
The Choice: 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3. 
 
DRAM Cycle Time Tras/Trc 
 
Select the number of SCLKs for an access cycle. 
The choice: 5/7, 6/8.
