Enable System BIOS Shadow Caching

Shadowing the system BIOS is a performance enhancement that you can enable for a small performance increase. In addition to shadowing the BIOS, you can also enable caching of the shadowed BIOS for an extra performance increase. This is controlled with this BIOS setting.

Note: It is unusual in my experience for problems to result from using this setting, so if you are having trouble enabling this you may want to troubleshoot your memory or motherboard.

Next: Enable Video BIOS Shadow Caching
