Windows 98 Automatic Configuration
PCI computers automatically detect and configure PCI-compliant adapters
while booting. The BIOS automatically sets the adapter IRQ level and I/O
address each time you start your computer.
Start your computer to automatically configure the adapter. Resource configura-
tion is complete when Windows 98 starts.
If your computer displays an error while booting, it may require additional steps
to configure. See the section PCI Installation Tips later in this guide for more
information.
