3.5.6

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.

3.5.6.1

PNP OS Installed

This item allows you to determine install PnP OS or not.

The choices: Yes, No.

3.5.6.2

Reset Configuration Data

Normally, you leave this field Disabled. Select Enabled to reset Extended System

Configuration Data (ESCD) 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.

The choices: Enabled, Disabled.

3.5.6.3

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 “ ”).

The choices: Auto(ESCD), Manual.
