摘要 |
Systems and methods for a PC or server architecture have been disclosed. The architecture is characterized by using non-volatile RAM modules, such as MRAM modules, for at least a part of the main memory, thus accelerating the power-on sequence of the computer. Components, which were stored in prior art either in battery backed CMOS Modules or in flash memory have been deployed in the non-volatile part of the main memory. Such components can be power-on self test codes, system configuration information, device drivers, a portion of the Operating system, and a portion or all of application programs and related application data.
