Controlled by:
- Auto
- Manual
Basically, BIOS will allocate the IRQ/DMA resources
automatically for these PNP/PCI and onboard
devices. The exception might be encountered when
legacy ISA devices are installed, which occupies
resources that BIOS can not know. Therefore, this
option is for BIOS to know in advance that IRQ/DMA
is occupied by legacy ISA devices if Manual is
selected.

Reset Configuration
Data:
- Enabled
- Disabled
When this item is set to Enabled, BIOS will turn it
Disabled again in the next boot up. This item is for
clearing ESCD data. The only reason to clear is the
data loosing the confidence. The engineering test is a
good reason to change the default setting.
