Hello!  I have a 80386-25 based PC with 64K cached memory and 4MB RAM.
It uses a noname motherboard and AMI BIOS.  When I turn on the
computer, it does self memory testing and says 3968 OK instead of 4096
OK.  I thought that this might because of the SIMMs, so I pulled out
the SIMMs ( four 1MBx9 SIMMs) in my computer and plugged into my
friend's computer and everything's fine (I mean he got 4096 OK message
after the memory test).  Any idea of where the lost 128K goes in my
computer?  Thanks in advance!
