Chapter 2 7KT400 BIOS Setup 2.8 PnP/PCI Configurations This section describes configuration of 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 the components on board. This section covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced users should make any changes to the default settings.
Chapter 2 7KT400 BIOS Setup Reset Configuration Data The system BIOS supports the PnP feature so the system needs to record which resource is assigned and proceeds to get rid of resource conflict. Every peripheral device has a node, which is called ESCD (Extended System Configuration Data. This node records which resources are assigned to it. If Disabled (Default) is chosen, the system ESCD will update only when the new configuration varies from the last one.
Chapter 2 7KT400 BIOS Setup IRQ Resources When resources are controlled manually, assign each system interrupt a type, depending on the type of device using the interrupt. 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 provideboot information and VGA compatibility.
