7-2 IBM Personal Computer User Guide
Evaluating your new hardware
The documentation that came with your new hardware should contain information
about required settings and the instructions on how to install the hardware. Study
the documentation carefully.
If the documentation refers you to information about your computer's I/O addresses,
system interrupt requests (IRQs), or DMA channel assignments, see
“ Appendix A:
Memory module placement. ”
For conflicts with system resources used by adapter
cards
If you install new hardware in your system, it might attempt to use a system
resource that is already assigned.
If you install a PCI adapter card, the system BIOS automatically detects it, assigns
an available system resource to it, and configures your computer to use the card.
Follow the procedure in the section “ Resolving resource conflicts ” on page 7-4.
For conflicts with other system resources
If you install hardware that creates conflicts with other system resources, you may
receive an error message the first time you turn on your computer after you have
installed the new hardware. If you receive an error message, use the Windows 98
Device Manager to reassign system resources. See the section
“ Using the Windows
98 Device Manager ” on page 7-4 for instructions.
Refer also to “ Appendix A: Memory module placement ” for information on system
resources.
