**Spelling errors/mistyped words
Yes, I  know there are  spelling errors,  and things are  mistyped. It
seems no matter  how hard I try  my fingers hit 't'  twice when typing
'compatible' rendering it 'compattible' numerous, (thousands actually)
times.  I  don't have the  time or the will  to check the  spelling of
everything. Basic spell checking has been peformed. Please let me know
if  there is  anything that  would lead  to incorrect  information, or
something  is so  mangled  that  it needs  revising.  But  if you  can
basically  understand  what was  intended,  just  cope with  it.  Just
cope:-)

BTW, "110" port is  an "I/O" port that has been OCRed  badly, as is an
"1/0" port.

***Info:
Overview
The 82C895 provides a highly integrated solution for fully compatible,
high performance  PC/AT platforms.   This chipset will  support 486SX/
DX/DX2/DX4  and P24T microprocessors  in the  most cost  effective and
power  efficient  designs  available  today.  For  power  users,  this
chipset offers optimum performance for systems running up to 50MHz.

Based  fundamentally  on  OPTi's   proven  82C801  and  82C802  design
architectures,  the 82C895 adds  additional memory  configurations and
extensive  power  management  control  for  the  processor  and  other
motherboard components.

The  820895  supports the  latest  write-back  processor designs  from
Intel, AMD, and Cyrix, as well as supporting the AT bus and VESA local
bus  for   compatibility  and   performance.   It  also   includes  an
82C206-compatible  Integrated Peripherals Controller  (IPC). all  in a
single 208-pin PQFP (Plastic Quad Flat Pack) package for low cost.

2.1 Power Management

This block diagram [see  datasheet] exemplifies the flexibility of the
82C895/82C602 GREEN  strategy.  System designs  can easily accommodate
both SLe  and non-SLe  CPUs. If  an Intel non-SLe  CPU is  used, SMI#,
SMIACT#, and  FLUSH# are no  connects.  One design can  easily accomm-
odate both types of processors with minimal changes for upgrades.
