System suspend timer
This timer supports the lowest power saving mode. After the time specified in
this timer has elapsed without any system activity, the system enters suspend
mode. To resume system operation, you can either press a key or move the
mouse.
Press the left or right arrow key to select your desired setting. Setting to Off
disables the suspend function.
Changing Plug and Play Configuration
When you install a new Plug and Play adapter card, the system BIOS
automatically detects it and configures your computer to use the card. If you
install a non-Plug and Play or a non-PCI adapter card, the BIOS does not
detect it. Instead, use Windows 95 Device Manager to dedicate ISA Legacy
resources for the card.
From the Setup Utility Main Menu, select the Plug and Play option to view or
change BIOS configuration policy or clear configuration data when installing
adapter cards.
Plug and Play OS
When this parameter is set to Yes, BIOS initializes only Plug and Play boot
devices, then the Plug and Play operating system takes care of the other
devices. When set to No, BIOS initializes all Plug and Play boot and non-boot
devices.
Set this parameter to Yes if you are using the Windows 95 operating system.
Set to No if you run any other operating system. The default setting is Yes.
Reset resource assignments
Set this parameter to Yes to avoid IRQ conflict when installing non-Plug and
Play cards. This clears all resource assignments and allow BIOS to reassign
resources to all installed Plug and Play devices the next time the system
boots. After clearing the resource data, the parameter resets to the default
setting No.
Before you install non-Plug and Play cards, set this parameter to Yes, exit the
Setup Utility and turn off the computer. Then refer to “Memory Map” on page
1-10, “System Input/Output Addresses” on page 1-11, “System Interrupts” on
page 1-12, and “DMA Channel Assignments” on page 1-13 to ensure there is
no conflict to system resources.
