PNP / PCI Configuration Screen
PNP OS Installed:
The default setting is “No”.
Reset Configuration Data:
The system BIOS supports the Plug and
Play feature so the resources assigned to each peripheral have to be
recorded to prevent them from conflicting. The location to store the
assigned resources is called ESCD which is located in the system
flash EEPROM. If this option is set to “Disabled” the ESCD will
update automatically when the new configuration varies from the
last one. If set to “Enabled”, the ESCD will be cleared and forced to
update and then automatically set this option to “Disabled”.
Resources Controlled By:
The default setting is “Manual” which
allows you to control IRQs and DMAs individually. The other option
is “Auto” which will detect the system resources and automatically
assign the relative IRQs and DMAs for each peripheral.
IRQ, DMA and Memory Resources:
If there is a legacy ISA device
which uses an IRQ or a DMA, set the corresponding IRQ or DMA to
“Legacy ISA”, otherwise you should set to PCI/ISA PnP.
PCI/VGA Palette Snoop:
If there are two VGA cards in your system
(one PCI and one ISA) and this option is set to “Disabled”, data read
and written by CPU is only directed to the PCI VGA card's palette
registers. If set to “Enabled”, data read and written by CPU will be
directed to both the palette registers of the PCI VGA and ISA VGA
