check here carefully
Æ
There will be a PCI device with vendor_ID=1234, device_ID=1002 (PCI-
1002)
If the Plug & Play ROM-BIOS detects the PCI-1002 card during the power-on
time, the software driver of DOS,and Windows 95/NT/2000/XP will function well
later. If the Plug & Play ROM-BIOS can’t find the PCI-1002, all software drivers
will not function. Therefore the user must make sure that the power-on procedure
is correct.
