Resources Controlled By :
The setting “Manual” allows you to
control IRQs and DMAs individually. The other option is “Auto”
which will detect the system resources and automatically assign the
relative IRQs and DMAs for each peripheral.
IRQ Resources :
This item allows you to determine the
IRQ assigned to the ISA bus and is not available to any PCI slot.
Legacy ISA for devices is compliant with the original PC AT
bus specification; PCI/ISA PnP (default) for devices is compliant
with the Plug-and-Play standard whether designed for PCI or
ISA bus architecture.
DMA Resources :
When resources are controlled manually,
assign each system DMA channel as one of the following types,
depending on the type of device using the interrupt: Legacy ISA
Devices compliant with the original PC AT bus specification,
requiring a specific interrupt ( such as IRQ4 for serial port 1).
PCI/ISA PnP (default) Devices compliant with the
Plug-and-Play standard, whether designed for PCI or ISA bus
architecture.
PCI/VGA Palette Snoop :
This item is designed to overcome
problems that can be caused by some non-standard VGA cards.
This board includes a built-in VGA system that does not require
palette snooping so you must leave this item disabled.
Assign IRQ For VGA :
This item allows the user to set VGA IRQ
Routing table Enabled or Disabled. The default setting is “Enabled”.
Assign IRQ For USB :
This item allows the user the option to
assign an IRQ to on-board USB controller. Since the on-board
controller is always enabled, if no IRQ is assigned to it, there will be
a question mark report on the system device under Windows95/98.
The default setting is “Enabled”.
