you should set the item to higher values.
PNP/PCI Configurations
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system and PnP (Plug & Play) feature.
PCI, or Peripheral Component Interconnect, is a system which allows I/O devices to

its 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.
