NOTES

   This EISA Configuration Utility should only be used with hardware 
   BIOS versions earlier than 2.0.  For systems with hardware BIOS 
   2.0 or later, or flashable BIOS, please use EISA Configuration 
   Utility 2.84 or later for Non-PCI systems (file name 
   10918031.EXE).
   
   This 2.63 version of the EISA Configuration Utility is necessary 
   because it includes the option to disable the "Limited Access to 
   16MB" field.  On systems with BIOS versions earlier than 2.0, 
   this field is enabled by default and would prevent access to more 
   than 16MB of memory.

   For information on installing this update, please view the 
   README.TXT file that accompanies the update.
