4.4.2 Standard CMOS Locations
Table 4-12 describes standard configuration memory locations 0Ah-3Fh. These locations are
accessible through using OUT/IN assembly language instructions using port 70/71h or BIOS
function INT15, AX=E823h.
NOTES:
Assume unmarked gaps are reserved.
Higher locations (>3Fh) contain information that should be accessed using the INT15, AX=E845h
BIOS function (refer to Chapter 8 for BIOS function descriptions).
4.5 System Management
This section describes functions having to do with security, power management, temperature,
and overall status. These functions are handled by hardware and firmware (BIOS) and generally
configured through the Setup utility.
4.5.1 Security Functions
These systems include various features that provide different levels of security. Note that this
subsection describes only the hardware functionality (including that supported by Setup) and
does not describe security features that may be provided by the operating system and application
software.
