Reserving Isa Legacy Resources; Telling Windows About The New Hardware - Mitsubishi Electric Apricot LS series Owner's Handbook Manual

Reserving ISA legacy resources

Telling Windows about the new hardware

10. Connect any necessary signal cables to the card.
11. Ensure no other cables or connectors have become dislodged,
then replace the system unit cover.
If you have just installed an ISA card, your first task after turning
on the computer is to run the BIOS Setup utility and reserve or
exclude the legacy resources (that is, the interrupts and UMB
regions) used by the card. This is necessary so that any Plug and
Play components can be configured automatically and won't try to
use the same settings. See the BIOS Setup & POST chapter for more
information.
Alternatively, under Windows 95, you can use the Control Panel to
change the resource settings used by devices:
1. Click the Start button in the taskbar, then Settings, then
Control Panel.
2. Double-click on System, then click the Device Manager tab of
the System Properties dialog.
3. Select the device whose resources you want to change, then
click Properties.
4. Click the Resources tab of the device's Properties dialog, select
the resource you want to change, then click Change Setting.
Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.x (or later) should automatically
detect and configure cards that support "Plug and Play". In other
cases you may have to tell Windows that you have installed new
hardware, as follows:
1. Click the Start button in the taskbar, then Settings, then
Control Panel.
2. Double-click on Add New Hardware.
3. Follow the instructions in the Add New Hardware Wizard.
