Base memory address
Some expansion cards are fitted with memory of their own, usually
read-only memory (ROM) containing functional extensions to the
computer's BIOS (basic input/output system) ROM. Some cards also
have random-access memory (RAM).
In order that this memory can be recognised by the system
processor, it must be mapped somewhere within the computer's own
address space. By setting the base memory address you specify
where the card's memory begins within the address space. Typically,
an expansion card's memory must be mapped onto the addresses
between C8000h and EFFFFh in upper memory. With most modern
expansion cards this is fully automatic.
