Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) local bus is a newly 
developed bus system that utilizes a 33MHz 32-bit data path. 
This bus architecture transfers data at a much faster rate than 
standard ISA bus. 

View All Button

Clicking this button in the PCI Devices window opens the View All 
window, which lists all the resources used by the PCI cards in your 
system.

View Button

Clicking this button in the PCI Devices window opens the View 
window which lists the resources reserved for a selected PCI card in 
your system.

PnP Concepts

When you add a hardware card to your personal computer (PC), you 
must reserve some system resources — such as input/output address 
spaces, interrupts, Direct Memory Access channels or memory spaces 
— for the card. You must also make sure that there is no hardware 
conflict, that is, the resources reserved by one card are not used by 
another card in the same system.

Before Plug and Play (PnP) was introduced, you can reserve system 
resources only by manually changing the settings of some dip switches 
or jumpers on a legacy (non-PnP) card. This can be quite difficult 
since you have to understand how the hardware settings correspond to 
the system resources that your card requires. It can also be very tedious 
since you may need to change the dip switch or jumper settings several 
times before your card can be configured without any hardware 
conflict.
