BASE MEMORY:
The POST (Power On Self Test) 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 memory installed on the
motherboard, or 640K for systems with 640K or more memory installed on
the motherboard.
EXTENDED MEMORY:
The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during the POST.
This is the amount of memory located above 1MB in the CPU’s memory
address map.
OTHER MEMORY:
This refers to the memory located in the 640K to 1024K address space. This
is memory that can be used for different applications. DOS uses this area to
load device drivers in an effort to keep as much base memory free for
application programs. The BIOS is the most frequent user of this RAM area
since this is where it shadows RAM.
