52 PnP/PCI Configuration
4.7. PnP/PCI Configuration
Both the ISA and PCI buses on the Mainboard use system IRQs (In-
terrupt ReQuests) and DMAs (Direct Memory Access). You must set
up the IRQ and DMA assignments correctly through the PnP/PCI
Configuration Setup utility; otherwise, the mainboard will not work
properly.
Selecting “PnP/PCI CONFIGURATION” on the main program
screen displays this menu:

(instead of BIOS) to assign the system resources such as IRQ and I/O
address to the ISA PnP device. The default setting is “No.”
