Code Description
CPU INIT CPU Initiation
DET CPU
Test CMOS R/W functionality.
CHIPINIT
Early chipset initialization:
-Disable shadow RAM
-Disable L2 cache
-Program basic chipset registers
DET DRAM
Detect memory
-Auto-detection of DRAM size, type and ECC.
-Auto-detection of L2 cache
DC FCODE Expand compressed BIOS code to DRAM
EFSHADOW Call chipset hook to copy BIOS back to E000 & F000 shadow RAM.
INIT IO Initialize IO devices.
INIT HWM
Initialize Hardware Monitor.
CLR SCRN
1. Blank out screen
2. Clear CMOS error ag
INIT8042
1. Clear 8042 interface
2. Initialize 8042 self-test
ENABLEKB
1. Test special keyboard controller for Super I/O chips.
2. Enable keyboard interface.
DIS MS
1. Disable PS/2 mouse interface (optional).
2. Auto detect ports for keyboard & mouse followed by a port & interface
swap (optional).

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.
VGA BIOS Initialize VGA BIOS
TESTVRAM
1. Initialize multi-language
2. Put information on screen display, including BIOS logo, CPU type, CPU
speed .
RESET KB Reset keyboard.
