Resource Configuration

3.3.1

PCI* Autoconfiguration

The BIOS can automatically configure PCI devices. PCI devices may be onboard or
add-in cards. Autoconfiguration lets a user insert or remove PCI cards without having
to configure the system. When a user turns on the system after adding a PCI card,
the BIOS automatically configures interrupts, the I/O space, and other system
resources. Any interrupts set to Available in Setup are considered to be available for
use by the add-in card.
