SDRAM CAS latency Time

When synchronous DRAM is installed, the number of clock cycles of CAS

latency depends on the DRAM timing. The settings are: 2 and 3.

SDRAM Cycle Time Tras/Trc

Select the number of SCLKs for an access cycle. The settings are: 5/7 and

6/8.

SDRAM RAS-to-CAS Delay

This field lets you inser t a timing delay between the CAS and RAS strobe

signals, used when DRAM is written to, read from, or refreshed. Fast gives

faster per formance; and Slow gives more stable per formance. This field

applies only when synchronous DRAM is installed in the system.

The settings are: 2 and 3.

SDRAM RAS Precharge Time

If an insufficient number of cycles is allowed for the RAS to accumulate its

charge before DRAM refresh, the refresh may be incomplete and the DRAM

may fail to retain data. Fast gives faster per formance; and Slow gives more

stable per formance. This field applies only when synchronous DRAM is

installed in the system. The settings are: 2 and 3.

System BIOS Cacheable

Selecting Enabled allows caching of the system BIOS ROM at F0000h-FFFFFh,

resulting in better system per formance. However, if any program writes to this

memor y area, a system error may result. The settings are: Enabled and

Disabled.

Video BIOS Cacheable

Select Enabled allows caching of the video BIOS , resulting in better system

per formance. However, if any program writes to this memor y area, a system

error may result. The settings are: Enabled and Disabled.

Memory Hole At 15M-16M

You can reserve this area of system memor y for adapter ROM. When this area

is reser ved, it cannot be cached. The user information of peripherals that need

to use this area of system memor y usually discusses their memory

requirements. The settings are: Enabled and Disabled.

CPU Latency Timer

When Enabled is selected, CPU Latency Timer becomes effective.

The settings are: Enabled and Disabled.
