Plug and Play
The Intel/Phoenix BIOS is Plug and Play. It automatically
configures both PCI and Plug and Play devices. This
autoconfiguration feature allows you to insert or remove a
PCI or Plug and Play ISA add-in card and power up your
computer without complicated setting changes. The system
automatically configures interrupts, I/O space, and other
parameters. Any interrupts set to "Available" in the system
Setup can be used by the Plug and Play board.
At the Intel Web site noted in the previous section, you can
find the specifications and information on which versions of
PCI and Plug and Play are supported by your system's
BIOS.
