PCI Solution
The board complies with PCI Spec. 2.1 needing neither switch nor jumper. The
hardware configuration for the IRQ and Memory addresses is automatically
assigned by the PCI BIOS. Hence, the board MUST be plugged first before
installing the software driver. For more PCI information, please refer to Appendix
“Technical Reference”.
