The first sentence under the bit-list reads:
By default, this bit mask is set to 10010101 (95H), which disables AutoRun for
removable drives, remote drives, and RAM disks.
It should be changed to:
By default, this bit mask is set to 10010101 (95H), which disables AutoRun for
DRIVE_UNKNOWN, DRIVE_REMOVABLE, and DRIVE_REMOTE. The high-order bit is also
set to disable AutoRun for reserved future devices.

Second and third paragraphs |
The corrected text is as follows:
Resolution and refresh rate are interrelated parts of synchronization
range of an analog monitor. For a given resolution, increasing the refresh
rate increases the number of screens (and accordingly the amount of data)
that must be transferred each second. Similarly, for a given refresh rate,
increasing the resolution increases the amount of data that must be
transferred for each screen. If you increase resolution or refresh rate,
you may have to decrease the other to stay within the HSF limit on total
bandwidth.
Note that manufacturers often specify maximum resolution and maximum
refresh rate independently, without consideration for their
interrelatedness. For example, specifications for a 19" monitor may promise
1600X1200 resolution and 160 Hz refresh. Don't assume that means you can
run 1600X1200 at 160 Hz. 160 Hz refresh may be supported only at 640X480
resolution; at 1600X1200, the monitor may support only 70 Hz refresh.
