Accessory Boards

If you have instal led an ISA board with memory mapped below 1 MB, highlight the
Memory Hole Below 1 MB , then specify the board's memory, and its location in main
memory between 0C8000h and 0DFFFFh. (Refer to the board's manual for details.)
If you have installed an ISA board that uses IRQ 9, 10, 11, or 15, you must tell the
Setup program which IRQ it uses. This allows PCI devices to be automatically
configured. You should always leave at least one IRQ free for use by the integrated PCI
devices.
IRQ 12 is normally used by the mouse. If you do not use a mouse, IRQ 12 can be made
available.
