Does anyone have any documentation or helpful hints on using the OPTI chipset extended setup in AMI's 386 BIOS? I have a non-cached 386/25 with 4Mb RAM, and I would like to disable Shadow RAM, since it leaves me with 3968K at boot time, and may be causing some incompatibilities I have encountered (a mouse which locks up several programs which used to work fine, a couple of games which don't run). Absolutely no mention of the OPTI setup is made in the documentation which came with the system. I tried disabling the SHADOW entries it listed, but the system was then slower by an ORDER of magnitude, literally. It was horrible, and I'm sure something was wrong. -- Kevin Martin sigma@ipl.rpi.edu "I am NOT a Merry Man!"
