Furthermore, some systems use the high memory area for BIOS shadowing to improve overall
system performance. In order for the Enabler to operate, any BIOS shadowing must be disabled
in the address range specified for the configuration window. BIOS shadowing can usually be
disabled through the system's CMOS setup utility.

Socket Numbers:
The Enabler requires the DSP-200/300's socket number to be specified on the command line and
the DSP-200/300 must be inserted into the socket before the Enabler is invoked. Some vendors
number their sockets from 1 to N while other vendors number their sockets from 0 to N-1. For
theDSP-200/300 Enabler, the lowest socket number in the system is designated socket 0.

Card and Socket Services Software:
In order to use the DSP-200/300 Enabler for DOS, the system MUST NOT be configured with
Card and Socket Services software. If a Card and Socket Services software is installed, the
Enabler may interfere with its operation and with the device(s) it controls. For systems
configured with Card and Socket Services, the DSP-200/300 Client Driver is the recommended
method of configuration.
