NOTES:

1.GR10[2:0] must not be programmed to “001” value because the GMCH hardware does not support the paging and VGA translation mode. Unpredictable hardware behavior will occur if GR10[2:0] were programmed to “001” value.

2.VGA Address Range, selected by GR06, Graphics range selected through Graphics base address register in configuration space. Access to VGA range does not require a translation table and VGA range paging allows access to all of local memory if it is setup with bit 4 of this register or to all the stolen for VGA main memory space. Access to graphics range requires GTT to be set up and will result in a prefetch unless prefetch is disabled. Access to VGA range will not result in prefetch.

3.BIOS should access local memory through the "back door" mechanism by setting GR10=17h, GR11=0, and GR6=0 only when local memory has been enabled (MMADR+3000h), else the system will hang in a snoop stall forever.

Description

 

 

 

 

 

7:0

 

Page Select. Selects a 64KB window within VGA space in NLVM mode or all of local memory when

 

 

 

Page Mapping is enabled (GR10[0]=1). In addition, this register is used for page selection of memory

 

 

 

mapped register addresses.
