Expanded memory Memory that specially written MS-DOS application programs can use with an Expanded Memory Specification (EMS) device driver. Extended Memory Memory above 1MB that is accessed by the protected mode of the microprocessor and is available to some application programs and operating systems. Fast-page mode A dynamic memory mode that allows successive addresses to access the same DRAM page by changing the column addresses. FLASH memory Non-volatile, rewritable, random access memory. Your computer's BIOS and EISA configuration information is stored in a FLASH memory device. 6 Glossary
