PNP/PCI Configuration
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or Personal Computer
Interconnect, is a system which allows I/O devices to operate at speeds nearing the
speed the CPU itself uses when communicating with its own special components.
Reset Configuration Data
Normally, you leave this field Disabled. Select Enabled to reset ESCD (Extended System
Configuration Date) when you exit Setup if you have installed a new add-on and the
system reconfiguration has caused such a serious conflict that the operating system
cannot boot.
Resource Controlled By
The Award Play and Play BIOS can automatically configure all the boot and Plug-and-Play
compatible devices. If you select Auto, all the interrupt request (IRQ) and DMA assignment
fields disappear, as the BIOS automatically assigns them.
PCI/VGA Palette Snoop
Normally this option is always Disabled! Nonstandard VGA display adapters such as
overlay cards or MPEG video cards may not show colors properly. Setting Enabled should
correct this problem. If this field set Enabled, any I/O access on the ISA bus to the VGA
card's palette registers will be reflected on the PCI bus. This will allow overlay cards to
adapt to the changing palette colors.
