AWARD BIOS SETUP
3.8 PNP/PCI CONFIGURATION
Both the ISA and PCI buses on the CPU card use system IRQs & DMAs. You must set
up the IRQ and DMA assignments correctly through the PnP/PCI Configuration Setup
utility, otherwise the SBC will not work properly.
When you select the "PnP /PCI CONFIGURATION" on the main program, the screen
display will appears as:

PnP OS Installed : 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® 95 or 98. When set to "No", BIOS will initialize all the PnP cards.
So, for non-PnP operating system (DOS, Netware®), this option must set to "Yes".
Reset Configuration Data : Normally, you leave this field "Disabled", Select "Enabled" to
reset Extended System Configuration Data (ESCD) when you exit Setup if you have
installed a new add-on and the system reconfiguration has caused such a serious conflict
that the operating system cannot boot.
The settings are : "Enabled and Disabled".
