Hi
	I was settting up my com ports in my PC AT clone by editing the 
CMOS chip. After editing , when I tried to reboot, it refused to do saying 
system halted. I had to reset the values in 82c235 CMOS chip. Now even though
it is working fine , It is reporting only 640 k instead of 1 M. I don't know 
which bit in the CMOS chip to set , so as to make it access full 1M. 
Any help is very much appritiated.

My configuration is like this
IBM PC AT clone 286 computer
AMerican Megatrends 286-BIOS 
1 M RAM
40 M IDE hard disk ( Seagate)
2 serial, 1 game and i parellel port
3 1/2" and 5 1/4" Drives ( Both high Densities)
Oak Tech. VGA card
