PCI accomplishes these goals with its 32-bit Data path Local Bus design, and support for
Plug & Play. Unlike older expansion bus architectures, PCI provides peripherals with a
direct connection to the CPU and memory. The PCI bus runs at 33Mhz and has a maximum
transfer capability of 132MBps. With Plug & Play, the system BIOS automatically
determines hardware resources for new peripherals, simplifying installation of multiple
interface cards.
This Setup Menu provides configuration options for the PCI Bus and its assigned resources.

The Award Plug and Play BIOS has the capacity to
automatically configure all of the boot and Plug and Play compatible devices. This
capability is specifically designed for a Plug and Play operating system such as Windows
95. Choices are
Auto
and
Manual
(default).
Reset Configuration Data
- Reset Configuration Data: When set to Enabled, ESCD
(Extended System Configuration Data) is cleared. This setting will automatically be set

By default, all resources are
assigned to the PCI Bus except IRQs 3, and 4. If an ISA card requires a particular IRQ or
DMA channel, those resources should be set to Legacy ISA so that the PCI Bus will not try
to use them. Choices are
Legacy ISA
and
PCI/ISA PnP
.
