The option you're referring to is similar to the AGP addressing, but for
ancient ISA bus systems.
Specifically, the ISA LFB Size is the Logical Frame Buffer size, and
would need to match what
you have installed for your ISA video card. If your card doesn't
require this, then leave it at the
factory default.
The base address is tied to the buffer size, and is dependent on the
chipset, don't worry about it.
Video Palette Snoop is something old BIOS's did to improve video
performance. If you don't know
what it is, safest thing is to leave it at factory default.
Latency Timer is specific to your BIOS, but probably modifies RAM or
Video timing, and should
be left alone unless you're really sure what you're changing it for.
