Setting the Shadow RAM
Your computer can access RAM (random access memory) faster
than ROM (read-only memory). The Shadow RAM feature
enables the Equity 286 PLUS to copy the contents of its system
BIOS and/or video ROM into RAM so it can perform certain
operations faster. It uses the RAM memory between the first
640KB and 1MB.
The SETUP Shadow RAM option lets you choose what to place
in the shadow RAM area:
System
Video
System and video
N o n e .
Select System+Video unless
you
have installed a memory
card or video card that provides its own shadow RAM (in which
case you can select just
System
or just
Video ).
Select
None if you do not want to use the Shadow RAM function
