Adding and Removing ISA Boards
Adding and removing boards through the RCA provides a way for the RCA to run its conflict
detection algorithms on the resources requested by the boards. This alerts you to any possible
problems with that particular board in the current configuration.
To add an ISA board:
1. Click <Add ISA Board> in the RCA window.
2. Specify the directory for the .CFG file.
3. Select the file and click <OK>.
To remove an ISA board:
1. Select a valid ISA board in the Devices section of the RCA window.
2. Click <Remove ISA Board>.
Modifying Resources
Modifying the resources of a device may be necessary to accommodate certain OSs, applications,
and drivers. It may also be necessary to modify resources to resolve a conflict.
To modify the resources associated with a device:
1. Highlight the device in the Devices section of the RCA window.
2. Press the spacebar or <Enter>, or double-click on the entry.
This displays the functions of the selected device along with possible choices and the resources
associated with those choices.
To make a modification:
1. Highlight the function in the Configuration window.
2. Press the spacebar or <Enter>, or double-click on the entry (this updates the choice and
resource lists).
3. Press the tab key to get to the choice list, and press <Enter>.
4. Use the arrow keys to select a proper choice, and press <Enter> again.
5. If the choice allows multiple possible values for a particular resource, use the hot key to
select a resource and press the spacebar or double-click on the resource.
6. Select the desired resource, and click <OK>.
System Resource Usage
Click <Resource Use> in the Configuration window to display the System Resource Usage
window, which shows the resources each device consumes. This information is useful if a conflict
occurs. Devices can be organized according to the resources you want to examine using the
options in the Resource section of the screen. The resource information can also be written to a
plain text file through this window.
Multiboot Options Add-in
In this window, you can change the boot priority of a device.
1. Select a device
2. Press <+> to move the device up in the list (higher priority). Press <-> to move it down.
