ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for significantly reducing the number and types of non-volatile memory used on a typical motherboard is disclosed. While there are typically three or more types of non-volatile memory used to support the CPU during system boot and initialization, the present invention uses only one. This allows for a significant savings in materials cost and design effort.
