4.9.3 Resources Controlled By
The Award Plug and Play BIOS has the capacity to
automatically configure all of the boot and Plug and Play
compatible devices. However, this capability means abso-
lutely nothing unless you are using a Plug and Play operating
system such as WindowsÒ98/95/NT. If you set this field to
“manual” choose specific resources by going into each of the
sub menu that follows this field (a sub menu is preceded by a
“Ø”).
