Description
CPU Initiation
Test CMOS R/W functionality.
�arly chipset initialization:
-Disable shadow RAM
-Disable L2 cache
-Program basic chipset registers
Detect memory
�Auto�detection of DRAM size, type and �CC.
-Auto-detection of L2 cache
Expand compressed BIOS code to DRAM
Call chipset hook to copy BIOS back to E000 & F000 shadow RAM.
Initialize IO devices.
Initialize Hardware Monitor.
1. Blank out screen
2. Clear CMOS error flag
1. Clear 8042 interface
2. Initialize 8042 self�test
1. Test special keyboard controller for Super I/O chips.
2. Enable keyboard interface.
1. Disable PS/2 mouse interface (optional).
2. Auto detect ports for keyboard & mouse followed by a port & interface
swap (optional).
3. Reset keyboard for Super I/O chips.
Test F000h segment shadow to see whether it is R/W-able or not. If test
fails, keep beeping the speaker.
Auto detect flash type to load appropriate flash R/W codes into the run time
area in F000 for ESCD & DMI support.
Use walking 1's algorithm to check out interface in CMOS circuitry. Also set
real-time clock power status, and then check for override.

Initialize INT 09 buffer
1. Program CPU internal MTRR (Pentium class CPU) for 0-640K memory
address.
2. Initialize the APIC for Pentium class CPU.
3. Program early chipset according to CMOS setup. Example: onboard IDE
controller.
4. Measure CPU speed.
5. Invoke video BIOS.
Initialize �GA BIOS
1. Initialize multi�language
2. Put information on screen display, including BIOS logo, CPU type, CPU
speed .
Reset keyboard.
