ISA Legacy Resources
If you select ISA Legacy Resources from the Configuration/Setup
Utility main menu, you can configure non-Plug and Play adapters,
which are not automatically detected by your server. You must
identify the following ISA Legacy resources as dedicated to your
new adapter so the BIOS does not attempt to assign them to Plug
and Play adapters:
Ÿ
Memory Resources
Ÿ
I/O Port Resources
Ÿ
DMA Resources
Ÿ
Interrupt Resources
Each of the options on the ISA Legacy Resources menu opens
another menu.

Options Descriptions
Memory Resources Use Memory Resources to allocate system memory regions for
an adapter. The menu lists the hexadecimal addresses of the
available memory regions. You allocate memory to an adapter
by selecting the ISA Resource setting for an available
hexadecimal address.
Be sure to read the documentation that comes with your
adapter. You might need to make changes to the adapter to
accommodate the selections you make for Memory Resources.
For example, you might have to move jumpers or switches on
the adapter, or make changes to the software that comes with
the adapter.
I/O Port Resources Use I/O Port Resources to allocate input/output ports for an
adapter. The menu lists the hexadecimal addresses of the
available I/O ports. You allocate I/O ports to an adapter by
selecting the ISA Resource setting for an available hexadecimal
address.
Be sure to read the documentation that comes with your
adapter. You might need to make changes to the adapter to
accommodate the selections you make for I/O Port Resources.
For example, you might have to move jumpers or switches on
the adapter, or make changes to the software that comes with
the adapter.
