Plug and Play Support

Your computer comes with a Plug and Play BIOS which
supports Plug and Play technology. Plug and Play
eliminates complicated setup procedures for installing
Plug and Play expansion boards.
With Plug and Play technology, you add a Plug and Play
expansion board simply by powering off the system, install-
ing the board, and powering on the system. There are no
jumpers to set and no system resource conflicts to resolve.
Plug and Play automatically configures the board for your
system.
Your system also supports non-Plug and Play boards.
For information about installing expansion boards, see
"Boards" in Chapter 5.
