Defining an ISA board
An ISA board usually comes with a vendor-created .cfg file that specifies
the resources the card requires to function properly. If the .cfg file is
unavailable, you must manually create it or define the board through the
SSU. Defining an ISA board consists of specifying the name of the board
and the resources it consumes. This allows the RCA to consider the ISA
board resource requirements when the RCA tries to resolve conflicts. BIOS
also uses this information to configure hardware when the system is booted.
1. To add or remove ISA board resources, click on the appropriate
resource buttons, select the desired value, and click
Add
or
Remove
