The OptiPlex GX1/GX1p systems contain advanced expansion subsystems
that can support a mixture of traditional ISA expansion cards (called

legacy

cards), Plug and Play ISA expansion cards, and PCI expansion cards.

For non-Plug and Play operating system environments, an ISA Configuration
Utility (ICU) included with the computer provides a means of avoiding
resource conflicts. Chapter 3, “Using the ISA Configuration Utility,” in the Ref-
erence and Installation Guide describes the ICU and provides instructions for
using it to configure the computer.

In the Microsoft

®

Windows

®

98 operating system, the functions provided by

the ICU are handled by the Device Manager, which can be accessed by
double-clicking the System icon in the Control Panel. See your Windows 98
documentation for instructions on using the Device Manager to manage
resources and resolve conflicts.
