4.2.3 OPTION ROM MAPPING
During POST, the PCI bus is scanned for devices that contain their own specific firmware in
ROM. Such option ROM data, if detected, is loaded into system memory’s DOS compatibility
area (refer to the system memory map shown in chapter 3).
4.2.4 PCI INTERRUPTS
Eight interrupt signals (INTA- thru INTH-) are available for use by PCI devices. These signals
may be generated by on-board PCI devices or by devices installed in the PCI slots. For more
information on interrupts including PCI interrupt mapping refer to the “System Resources” section
4.4.
4.2.5 PCI POWER MANAGEMENT SUPPORT
This system complies with the PCI Power Management Interface Specification (rev 1.0). The PCI
Power Management Enable (PME-) signal is supported by the chipset and allows compliant PCI
and AGP peripherals to initiate the power management routine.
4.2.6 PCI SUB-BUSSES
The chipset implements two data busses that are supplementary in operation to the PCI bus:
and the ICH5. This bus is transparent
software and is not accessible for expansion purposes.
