  • Page 99: Using System Resources

    Using System Resources Most ISA devices installed in the system require you to reserve an IRQ. PCI devices also need to use an IRQ, but since they share system resources they can use the same IRQ. At least one IRQ must be left unassigned, for use with any PCI devices installed in your system. The system has a limited number of open IRQs.

    PCI Devices The system’s PCI expansion slots comply with the PCI 2.1 specification. Devices that comply with the PCI 2.1 specification are fully plug-and-play. You do not have to configure them after installation. Some older PCI device drivers cannot share an interrupt, which is a violation of the PCI 2.1 specification.
