BIOS

The BIOS provides the power-on self-test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, the PCI and IDE
auto-configuration utilities, and the video BIOS. The BIOS is stored in the Intel 82802AB
Firmware Hub.
The BIOS can be upgraded by following the instructions in Chapter 3.

PCI Auto Configuration

If you install a PCI add-in board in your computer, the PCI auto-configuration utility in the BIOS
automatically detects and configures the resources (IRQs, DMA channels, and I/O space) for that
add-in board. You do not need to run the BIOS Setup program after you install a PCI add-in board.

IDE Auto Configuration

If you install an IDE device (such as, a hard drive) in your computer, the IDE auto-configuration
utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the device for your computer. You do not
need to run the BIOS Setup program after installing an IDE device.
