PnP/PCI Configurations
This option configures how PnP (Plug and Play) and PCI expansion cards operate in the system. Both the ISA
and PCI buses on the mainboard use system IRQs (Interrupt ReQuests) and DMAs (Direct Memory Access).
You must set up the IRQ and DMA assignments correctly through the PnP/PCI Configurations menu; other -
wise, the mainboard will not work properly. Selecting “PnP/PCI Configurations” on the main menu displays
this menu:
Reset Configuration Data
If you enable this item and restart the system, any PnP configuration data stored in the BIOS Setup is cleared
from memory. The default setting is Disabled.
Resources Controlled By
You should leave this item at the default Auto (ESCD). Under this setting, the system dynamically allocates
resources to plug and play devices as they are required. If you cannot get a legacy ISA (Industry Standard
Architecture) expansion card to work properly, you might be able to solve the problem by changing this item
to Manual, and then opening up the IRQ Resources sub-menu.
PCI/VGA Palette Snoop
This item is designed to overcome some problems that can be caused by some non-standard VGA cards. This
mainboard includes a built-in VGA system that does not require palette snooping so you must leave this item
disabled. The default setting is Disabled.
