2 How to Install and Replace Components In Your Desktop PC

Installing Accessory Boards

Configuring non-Plug and Play ISA Accessory Boards

If you install an ISA accessory board that is not Plug and Play, you will

need to configure the board before your PC can use it. For instructions

about configuring the board, refer to the documentation that came

with the board.

For guidelines on available IRQs and I/O addresses in your PC, refer to

page 119. Some operating systems, such as Windows 95, can display

the IRQs and I/O addresses currently used by your PC. Refer to the

operating system documentation for more information.

Refer to the documentation supplied with the operating system for

details on your operating system’s capabilities and restrictions

concerning non-Plug and Play accessory boards.

Resetting the PC’s

Configuration Data

If your PC is having difficulty recognizing the ISA board, try resetting

the PC’s data configuration. This will clear any old configuration data

that is no longer used. To do this, enter the PC’s Setup program, set the

Reset Configuration Data

parameter to Yes, and restart the PC.

To enter the Setup program, press

F2 during startup.
