3-5 PNP/PCI Configuration

This section provides IRQ and DMA setting information. By choosing the PnP/PCI
Configuration option from the CMOS Setup Utility menu (Figure 3-1), the screen
below is displayed. This sample screen contains the manufacturer's default values

for the mainboard.

A. PNP OS installed

If you want to install a PNP compatible OS (such as Windows 95) set to Yes.

B. Resources Controlled By

When set to Manual the system BIOS will not refer to the ESCD for IRQ & DMA
information. Instead, it will refer to the items in the setup menu for assigning
IRQ & DMA. When set to Auto the system BIOS will refer to the ESCD for
all legacy information.

ESCD(Extended System Configuration Data) provides a detailed format
of the configuration data structures stored in flash memory. Each data
structure defines the resources used by a device or a card in the system.
This includes legacy and PCI/ISA PnP devices.
