PWRON After PWR-Fail (Off)
This item allows you to select power on function when power fail.
PNP/PCI Configurations
This option configures how PnP (Plug and Play) and PCI expansion cards
operate in your system. Both the ISA and PCI buses on the Motherboard use
system IRQs (Interrupt ReQuests) and DMAs (Direct Memory Access). You
must set up the IRQ and DMA assignments correctly through the PnP/PCI
Configurations Setup utility for the motherboard to work properly. Selecting
PnP/PCI Configurations on the main program screen displays this menu:
Reset Configuration Data (Disabled)
If enabled, this feature will reset the Extended System Configuration Data
(ESCD) upon exiting Setup. This may correct hardware conflicts that prevent
the Operating System from booting.
Resources Controlled By (Auto (ESCD))
You should leave this item at the default Auto (ESCD). Under this setting, the
system dynamically allocates resources to Plug and Play devices, as they are
required.
If you cannot get a legacy ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) expansion card
to work properly, you might be able to solve the problem by changing this item
to Manual, and then opening up the IRQ Resources and Memory Resources
submenus.
In the IRQ Resources submenu, if you assign an IRQ to Legacy ISA, then that
Interrupt Request Line is reserved for a legacy ISA expansion card. Press
<Esc> to close the IRQ Resources submenu.
In the Memory Resources submenu, use the first item Reserved Memory
Base to set the start address of the memory you want to reserve for the ISA
expansion card. Use the second item Reserved Memory Length to set the
amount of reserved memory. Press <Esc> to close the Memory Resources
submenu.
