PCI Autoconfiguration

The BIOS can automatically configure PCI devices. PCI devices may be onboard or
add-in cards. Autoconfiguration lets a user insert or remove PCI cards without having
to configure the system. When a user turns on the system after adding a PCI card, the
BIOS automatically configures interrupts, the I/O space, and other system resources.
Any interrupts set to Available in Setup are considered to be available for use by the
add-in card.
