2-26 Setup and Operation
Use PnP OS (default)
−
If “Use PnP OS” is selected, the BIOS depends on run-
time software to ensure that there are no conflicts between ISA boards with Plug
and Play capabilities and those without. Only “Boot With PnP OS” is visible.
Boot with PnP OS
The Boot with PnP OS field enables the system to boot with an operating system
capable of managing Plug and Play add-in cards. The choices are as follows.
None
Other
Windows95 (default)
ISA Shared Memory Size
The ISA Shared Memory Size field is used to set a block of system memory which
will not be shadowed. (Shadowing is a technique which copies a block of memory
from an address in the expansion board’s ROM to the same address in the system
memory to allow faster access to the code and achieve higher performance.)
If “Disabled,” all upper memory is shadowed and ISA Shared Memory Base
Address field is not displayed. This field provides the following choices.
When a value other than “Disabled” is selected, a block is unshadowed and the
ISA Shared Memory Base Address field will appear.
Disabled (default)

If a value of “96 KB” is selected, then
the ISA Shared Memory Base Address field can
only be set to C8000h; if “80 KB,” then a value
of C8000 or CC000h, etc.
