Description

CFh

 

Test CMOS R/W functionality.

 

C0h

 

Early chipset initialization:

 

 

 

 

-Disable shadow RAM

 

 

 

 

-Disable L2 cache (socket 7 or below)

 

 

 

 

-Program basic chipset registers

 

C1h

 

1. Detect memory

 

 

 

 

-Auto-detection of DRAM size, type and ECC.

 

 

 

 

-Auto-detection of L2 cache (socket 7 or below)

 

 

 

2. PEG slots Auto-Configuration

 

C3h

 

Expand compressed BIOS code to DRAM

 

C5h

 

Call chipset hook to copy BIOS back to E000 & F000 shadow RAM.

 

0h1

 

Expand the Xgroup codes locating in physical address 1000:0

 

03h
