TForce 945P BIOS Manual
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 of

covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced
users should make any changes to the default settings.
