Free AD21 Free There are two different riser cards that can be fitted to ENDAT-586EL All-In-One motherboard. The first one is a 98pin ISA only Bus riser card (traditional ISA Bus Please note: PCI/ISA riser card), the second one is a 188pin PCI/ISA riser card.
The ENDAT-586EL All -In-One motherboard 2-5. Assigning IRQs for Expansion Cards Some expansion cards require an IRQ (Interrupt request vector) to operate. Generally, an IRQ must be exclusively assigned to one use. In a standard design, there are 16 IRQ available with 11 of them already in used by other part of the system.
User’s Manual Status Assignment Used LPT1 Used Used Redirected IRQ2 Used COM4 (Optional) Used LAN Adapter (on board) Used PS/2 Mouse Used Coprocessor Used Hard Disk (IDE 1) Used Reserved (IDE 2) 2-6. Assigning DMA Channels for ISA Cards Since ISA cards, both Legacy and PnP may also need to use a DMA (direct memory access) channel, DMA as signments for this motherboard are handled the same way as the IRQ assignment process described above.

The ENDAT-586EL All -In-One motherboard PM Events PM events are I/O events whose occurrence can prevent the system from entering a power saving mode or can awaken the system from such a mode. In effect, the system remains for anything, which occurs to a device that is configure d as ON, even when the system is in a power down mode.
User’s Manual 3-5. PCI Configuration Setup This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI is a system that allows I/O device to operate at speeds nearing the speed of the CPU itself, when communicating with its own special components. This section covers some very technical items.
