Specialty Definition: Real mode

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Real mode denotes a way of operating Intel microprocessors. It means that only 1MB of memory can be addressed. PC computers execute the first steps in this mode when starting. DOS operates in this mode. The advantage of using the real mode is that the BIOS routines may be used. Other more modern operating systems switch to the more powerful protected mode.

Real mode is the only mode x86 processor designs were capable of operating in until the 80286.
