such as IRQ and I/O address to the ISA PnP

PnP configuration data stored in the BIOS setup is

cleared from memory. New updated data is
created.
Resources
You should leave this item at the default Auto
Controlled By
(ESCD). Under this setting, the system
dynamically allocates resources to plug and play
devices as they are required. If you cannot get a
legacy ISA (Industry Standard Architecture)
expansion card to work properly, you might be
able to solve the problem by changing this item to
Manual, and then opening up the IRQ Resources
and Memory Resources sub-menus.
In the IRQ Resources sub-menu, if you change
any of the IRQ assignations to Legacy ISA, then
that Interrupt Request Line is reserved for a
legacy ISA expansion card. Press Esc to close
