Using the System Utilities

Adding or Removing Boards

Each time you add or remove a board, you must reconfigure your server using
the EISA Configuration Utility program.

Adding Boards

Note: If you are adding a PCI device or a plug-and-play ISA board, proceed
to step 5.

PCI devices and plug-and-play (PnP) ISA boards do not require a
corresponding CFG file. The configuration information is already stored on
the board.

To add a board, follow these steps:

1. Select “Maintain system configuration diskette” from the main menu and

press Enter.

2. From the screen that displays, select “Copy/Update CFG files” and press

Enter. A list of CFG files from your system configuration diskette
displays.

Note: The EISA Configuration Utility uses the CFG file to configure the
board into the system without creating conflict with other boards or
devices.

3. Select the appropriate CFG files and press Enter to return to the

“Maintain system configuration diskette” screen.

4. Select “Return to the main menu” and press Enter.

5. From the main menu, select “Configure computer” and press Enter. The

screen “Steps in configuring your computer” displays.
