which may not be automatically detected, can be manually recorded in
the DMI pool by using the Add DMI menu. The DMI pool data is then

Running the DMI Utility
To run the DMI utility, type: DMICFG.EXE. You can download this utility
from http://www.dfi.com.tw - BIOS & DRIVERS section.
The DMI utility must run in real mode with at least 180K of base
memory. Memory managers like HIMEM.SYS (required by Windows)
must not be installed. To do this, boot up from a system diskette without
the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files. " REM" HIMEM.SYS in the
CONFIG.SYS or press <F5> during bootup to bypass your
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files.
