PnP / PCI Configuration

This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or Personal Computer

I

nterconnect, 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. This section
covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced
users should make any changes to the default settings.

Resources Controlled By

The Award Plug and Play BIOS has the capacity to automatically configure all of the boot
and Plug and Play compatible devices. However, this capability means absolutely nothing
unless you are using a Plug and Play operating system such as Windows

®95. If you set

this field to “manual” choose specific resources by going into each of the sub menu that
follows this field (a sub menu is preceded by a “¾”).
The choices: Auto(ESCD), Manual.
