2.7 PnP/PCI Configurations
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or Personal
Computer Interconnect, is a system which allows I/O devices to operate at speeds
nearing the speed the CPU itself uses when communicating with its own special
components. This section covers some very technical items and it is strongly
recommended that only experienced users should make any changes to the default
settings.
