Brief description of mainbo ard
PCI bus interrupts - Selecting correct PCI slot
Extensive information on this section is contained in the manual "Basic information on mainboard".
To achieve optimum stability, performance an d compatibility, avoid the multiple use
of ISA IRQs or PCI IRQ Lines (IRQ sharing). Should IRQ sharing b e unavoidable,
then all involved devices and thei r drivers must support IRQ sharing.
Which ISA IRQs are assigned to the PCI IRQ Lines is normally automatically
specified by the BIO S ( see "BIOS Setup" de scription).
Monofu nct ional expansion cards
PCI/PCI Express expansion cards require a maximum of one interrupt, which is called the PCI
interrupt INT A. Expansion cards that do not require an interrup t can be inst alled in any desired slot.
Multifunctio nal expansi on cards or expa nsio n cards with integrated PCI-PCI bridge
These expansion cards require up to four PCI interrupts: INT A, INT B, INT C, INT D. How many
and which of the se interrupts are used is speci fied in th e documentation provided with the card.
The assignment of the PCI interrupts to the IRQ Lines is show n in the following table:
