ä PCI-slotX: Some old PCI IDE cards cannot be detected by the BIOS. If
the onboard BIOS cannot detect a PCE IDE card, you have to specify on
which PCI slot the IDE card is inserted, to make the BIOS assign IRQ14
for use by the interrupt number (INT#) of this PCI slot.
ä ISA: If you select ISA, it means that your PCI IDE card features a
"paddleboard" and a cable that can be connected to IRQ on the ISA slot,
because the BIOS will not assign any IRQ to this PCI slot.
Attention: Primary Channel and Secondary Channel : The BIOS needs two
independent interrupt number (INT#) lines to be allocated to the
PCI IDE card. Be careful not to choose twice the same interrupt
number (INT#).
Note:
Since the interrupt number of the PCI slot is connected according the
design described below, there are some limitations, be careful.

This is to Enable or Disable the onboard Universal Serial Bus (USB) controller.
Onboard PS/2 Mouse:
This is to Enable or Disable the PS/2 Mouse. When in Enable, IRQ 12 is used.

INT#D signal of the fourth PCI slot, are the same, so be careful
not to use them simultaneously.
