BIOS Tuning: Maximum Power
Features

published DOS Relic: Shadow Memory Addressing
Relic from the DOS era: The "Shadow Configuration" menu is no longer relevant today in Windows 98SE and Windows 2000.
Even today, all modern boards still incorporate functions that date back to the bygone DOS era. These include the menus found under the category of "Shadow Configuration". Only those users who still work in the antiquated MS-DOS operating system should tamper with these settings. After all, with state-of-the-art operating systems such as Windows 98 SE and Windows 2000, these adjustments are managed by the system itself.
Beneficial: The "Video ROM BIOS Shadow" function should always be enabled.
