Aren’t crappy 32bit PCI devices limited to the first 4GB of RAM in the same
pathetic-limitation way ?

Subject: [ntdev] Re: Newbie question: What are map registers really …
Mark Roddy is, as usual, right on target with this answer. On
small detail
is that that the map registers are in fact allocated below 16MB
physical (in
A24 space) on systems with ISA buses.Peter
OSR Open Systems Resources, Inc.
Ah yes, the ‘on small detail’ done got me again 
Peter is of course
correct that the ridiculous ISA bus can’t even address 64MB, no it can only
address 16MB, and thus MAP registers are forced to be located below 16MB.
Yet Another Reason To Banish ISA Forever.
