PNP/PCI Configurations
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system and PnP (Plug &
Play) feature. PCI, or Peripheral Component Interconnect, is a system which
allows I/O devices to operate at speeds nearing the speed the CPU itself uses
when communicating with its special components. This section covers some
very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experienced
users should make any changes to the default settings.
Plug and Play Aware O/S
When set to Yes, BIOS will only initialize the PnP cards used for booting (VGA,
IDE, SCSI). The rest of the cards will be initialized by the PnP operating system
like Windows
®
98, 2000 or ME. When set to No, BIOS will initialize all the PnP
cards. Select Yes if the operating system is Plug & Play.
Primary Graphics Adaptor
This setting specifies which VGA card is your primary graphics adapter. Set-
ting options: PCI, AGP.
