Base Memory The POST of the BIOS will determine the amount of base (or conventional) memory installed in the system. The value of the base memory is typically 512 K for systems with 512 K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for systems with 640 K or more memory installed on the motherboard. Extended Memory The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during the POST. This is the amount of memory located above 1 MB in the CPU' memory s address map. 28 BIOS Setup Advanced BIOS Features CMOS Setup Utility -Copy right (C) 1984-2001 Aw ard Softw are Adv anced BIOS Features BIOS Flash Protection Processor Serial Number First Boot Dev ice Second Boot Dev ice Third Boot Dev ice Boot Up Floppy Seek Boot Up Num-Lock Passw ord Check MPS Version Control For OS HDD S.
