Reset Configuration Data
Normally, you leave this field on “Disabled”. Select “Enabled” to reset Extended System
Configuration Data (ESCD), if you have just installed a new add-on card and the system
reconfiguration has caused such a serious conflict that the operating system cannot boot.
The setting will automatically be set back to “Disabled” when the system reboots.
•
Resources Controlled by
The Award Plug and Play BIOS can automatically configure all the boot and Plug and Play
(PnP) compatible devices. If you select “Auto(ESCD)”, all of the Interrupt Requests (IRQs)
and DMA assignment fields will be deactived as the BIOS automatically assigns them.
•
PnP OS Installed
This field allows you to use a Plug-and-Play (PnP) operating system to configure the PCI
bus slots instead of using the BIOS. Thus interrupts may be re-assigned by the OS when
“Yes” is selected. When a non-PnP OS is installed to prevent re-assigning of interrupt
settings, select the default setting of “No”.
