DVMT 3.0 automatically and dynamically allocates as much (as configured

in the BIOS - see

Page 5 - 5

) system memory (RAM) as needed to the video system

(the video driver must be installed - see page

B - 1

). DVMT returns whatever

memory is no longer needed to the operating system.

DVMT Notes

DVMT is not local video
memory.

DVMT will not function
in MS-DOS. DOS uses
the legacy memory indi-
cated.
