I have an Optima 386sx@20Mhz 2Megs Ram, 16K cache, Maxtor 7120AT The BIOS Title at BootTime is: AMI 386sx-BIOS (c) 1990 AMI, for MB-1320-CH (c) AMI EOPX-1223-101090-KF The MB-1320-CH is the designation of my motherboard. The board uses a OPTI 82C282 chip(set). I've put the bus speed to 10Mhz (R14,b0 = 1) and that speeds it up! Any other tips for this machine? My question is: What does these two entries in the CMOS setup mean? Video BIOS shadow : Enabled Scratch RAM option : 1 <------ this one? Main BIOS shadow : Enabled 256KB memory reloc.: Enabled <------ and this one? Cache Memory : Write throught (sp!) I know what the shadowing does but the two others, well, no idea!
