Shadow BIOS ROM
Part of the operating system (System BIOS) is resident in an EPROM. How
fast this part of the program runs is determined by the fairly slow EPROMs.
The entry in this field enables you to copy the BIOS to the fast RAM after
powering up. This shortens the runtimes of these program sections and
enhances PC performance (speed).In the same way you can copy the
Video BIOS to the RAM.

In the input field, you can determine whether a part of the main memory is
mapped in the high-speed cache memory (SRAM). Program runs and data
accesses can be executed much more quickly in this way.
