PCI Slot1 IRQ Priority

PCI Slot2 IRQ Priority

PCI Slot3 IRQ Priority

PCI Slot4 IRQ Priority

These options specify the IRQ priority for PCI devices installed in the PCI

expansion slots. The settings are

Auto, (IRQ) 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14,

or

15, in priority order

.

DMA Channel 0

DMA Channel 1

DMA Channel 3

DMA Channel 5

DMA Channel 6

DMA Channel 7

These DMA channels control the data transfers between the I/O devices

and the system memory. The chipset allows the BIOS to choose which

channels to do the job. The settings are

PnP

or

ISA/EISA.

IRQ3

IRQ4

IRQ5

IRQ7

IRQ9

IRQ10

IRQ11

IRQ12

IRQ14

IRQ15

These options specify which bus the specified IRQ line is used on and

allow you to reserve IRQs for legacy ISA adapter cards. If more IRQs must

be removed from the pool, the end user can use these options to reserve

the IRQ by assigning an

ISA/EISA

setting to it. Onboard I/O is configured

by AMIBIOS. All IRQs used by onboard I/O are configured as PCI/PnP.

IRQ14 and 15 will not be available if the onboard PCI IDE is enabled. If all

IRQs are set to

ISA/EISA

and IRQ14 and 15 are allocated to the onboard

PCI IDE, IRQ 9 will still be available for PCI and PnP devices. This is

because at least one IRQ must be available for PCI and PnP devices. The

settings are

PCI/PnP

or

ISA/EISA.
