	other errors.

Memory

The category is display-only which is determ ined by POST (Power On Self Test) of the BIOS.

BaseMemory

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 512K for systems with 512K m emory installed on the motherboard, or 640K for systems with 640K or more memory installed on the motherboard.

ExtendedMemory

The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during the POST.

This is the am ount of mem ory located above 1 M B in the CPU's memory address map.
