PnP cards are ISA cards that contain configuration registers like PCI cards. During
startup, the system BIOS automatically detects the installed card and assigns the
necessary system resources. Since a PnP card is ISA-based, you install it in the ISA slot.
NOTE
Assign system resources for an ISA card and any non-compliant PCI cards before
installation. See "Assigning System Resources" later in this chapter.
Each installed PCI card must draw less than 25 watts of power. The total allowable
maximum wattage for PCI cards is 175 watts. The PCI slots are limited to 25 watts power
dissipation per the Peripheral Component Interconnect Specification, 2.1 .
Slot Locations
The expansion slots are located at the bottom left section of the system board, as shown
below. Slots 1 through 4 are primary slots and slots 5 through 7 are secondary. Slot 7 is a
shared PCI/ISA slot. You can install a card in the number 7 PCI slot or the ISA slot, but not
both.
