PC 6170 User’s Manual

Resources Controlled By

The Award Plug and Play BIOS can automatically configure all the boot
and Plug and Play-compatible devices. If you select Auto, all the interrupt
request (IRQ), DMA assignment, and Used DMA fields disappear, as the
BIOS automatically assigns them. The default value is “Manual”.

IRQ Resources

When resources are controlled manually, assign each system interrupt as
one of the following types, depending on the type of device using the
interrupt:

1. Legacy ISA Devices compliant with the original PC AT bus

specification, requiring a specific interrupt (such as IRQ4 for
serial port 1).

2. PCI/ISA PnP Devices compliant with the Plug and Play

standard, whether designed for PCI or ISA bus architecture.

The default value is “PCI/ISA PnP”.

DMA Resources

When resources are controlled manually, assign each system DMA
channel as one of the following types, depending on the type of device
using the interrupt:

1.

Legacy ISA Devices compliant with the original PC AT bus

specification, requiring a specific DMA channel.

2.

PCI/ISA PnP Devices compliant with the Plug and Play

standard, whether designed for PCI or ISA bus architecture.

The default value is “PCI/ISA PnP”.

Memory Resources

This sub menu can let you control the memory resource.

PCI/VGA Palette Snoop

Some non-standard VGA display cards may not show colors properly.
This field allows you to set whether MPEG ISA/VESA VGA Cards can
work with PCI/VGA or not. When enabled, a PCI/VGA can work with a
MPEG ISA/VESA VGA card. When disabled, a PCI/VGA cannot work
with a MPEG ISA/VESA Card.
