Use BIOS Setup (default)
−
The BIOS depends upon the
information provided by you in the following fields to
prevent conflicts between the Plug and Play and ISA
legacy boards. You should not install and use run-time
Plug and Play software such as Configuration Managers
and the ISA Configuration Utility (ICU).
Boot with PnP OS
The Boot with PnP OS field enables the system to boot
with an operating system capable of managing Plug and
Play add-in cards. The choices are as follows.
Disabled
Other
Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 (default)
NOTE
The following three fields (ISA Shared
Memory Size, ISA Shared Memory Address, and
IRQ 5,9,10,11 Available) display only if
Configuration Mode is set to “Use BIOS Setup”
rather than the “Use PnP OS.”
ISA Shared Memory Size
The ISA Shared Memory Size field is used to set a block
of system memory that will not be shadowed.
(Shadowing is a technique that copies a block of
memory from an address in the expansion board’s ROM
to the same address in the system memory to allow faster
access to the code and achieve higher performance.)
If “Disabled,” all upper memory is shadowed and ISA
Shared Memory Base Address field is not displayed.
This field provides the following choices.
