PCI PnP

The PCI PnP menu items allow you to change the advanced settings for PCI/PnP

devices. The menu includes setting IRQ and DMA channel resources for either

PCI/PnP or legacy ISA devices, and setting the memory size block for legacy ISA

devices.

Take caution when changing the settings of the PCI PnP menu items. Incorrect

field values can cause the system to malfunction.

Plug and Play O/S [No]

When set to [No], BIOS configures all the devices in the system. When set to

[Yes] and if you install a Plug and Play operating system, the operating system

configures the Plug and Play devices not required for boot.

Configuration options: [No] [Yes]

PCI Latency Timer [64]

Allows you to select the value in units of PCI clocks for the PCI device latency

timer register. Configuration options: [32] [64] [96] [128] [160] [192] [224] [248]

Allocate IRQ to PCI VGA [Yes]

When set to [Yes], BIOS assigns an IRQ to PCI VGA card if the card requests for

an IRQ. When set to [No], BIOS does not assign an IRQ to the PCI VGA card even

if requested. Configuration options: [No] [Yes]

Palette Snooping [Disabled]

When set to [Enabled], the palete snooping feature informs the PCI devices that

an ISA graphics device is installed in the system so that the latter can function

correctly. Configuration options: [Disabled] [Enabled]
