Bhapter 1 BIOS Settp 2.7 PnP/PCI Configurations 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 of the CPU itself when communicating with its own special components. This section covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced uses make any changes to the default settings. ◎ Figure 7.
PAGE 50
Bhapter 1 BIOS Settp Reset Configuration Data The system BIOS supports the PnP feature so the system needs to record which resource is assigned and proceeds resources from conflict. Every peripheral device has a node, which is called ESCD. This node records which resources are assigned to it. The system needs to record and update ESCD to the memory locations. These locations (4K) are reserved at the system BIOS.
PAGE 51
Bhapter 1 BIOS Settp The above settings will be shown on the screen only if “Manual” is chosen for the resources controlled by function. Legacy is the term, which signifies that a resource is assigned to the ISA Bus and provides for non-PnP ISA add-on cards. PCI/ISA PnP signifies that a resource is assigned to the PCI Bus or provides for ISA PnP add-on cards and peripherals.

Bhapter 1 BIOS Settp PCI / VGA Palette Snoop Choose Disabled or Enabled. Some graphic controllers which are not VGA compatible take the output from a VGA controller and map it to their display as a way to provide boot information and VGA compatibility. However, the color information coming from the VGA controller is drawn from the palette table inside the VGA controller to generate the proper colors, and the graphic controller needs to know what is in the palette of the VGA controller.
