After adding EISA or ISA adapters, you will often need to view and/or edit the
settings for the adapter. To view or edit an adapter′s details:
a. From the Main menu, select step 3 (View or Edit Details) with the arrow
key.
b. Press Enter to view configuration details. You will see a screen similar
to that shown in Figure 32
Step 3: View or edit details
Press Enter to edit the functions of the highlighted item.
Press F6 to edit its resources (IRQs, DMAs, I/O ports, or memory).
Press F10 when you have finished this step.

Use the Edit Resources option to change interrupt request levels, I/O
addresses and other parameters whose settings may need to be changed to
avoid conflicts with other devices.
Note
Sometimes changing a setting during this step requires you to change a
switch or jumper setting on the system board or on an adapter.
When finished, press F10 to exit and return to the EISA Configuration menu.
6. Examine switches or print report
You can use this option to display the correct switch and jumper settings for
the installed devices that have switches and jumpers. You can also choose
to print a system configuration report. To do this:
a. Use the arrow key to select step 4 and press Enter.
b. Select the board(s) marked with an arrow and press Enter.
c. The necessary switch/jumpers settings are displayed in a screen similar
to the one shown in Figure 33 on page 77.
