Selecting a card and device to configure

The main window of the ISA PnP Configuration Manager displays cards and the devices they support. If only one card is available for configuration, it is already highlighted when you start the manager.

Each time you highlight a different card, the list of devices below changes to contain the devices associated with the selected card. For example, a sound card might support audio, an IDE CD-ROM, and a joystick.

Each device displays an icon which reflects its current state:

• A circle with a slash through it indicates that the device has not been configured or has been disabled.

• A circular arrow indicates that the device has been chosen for BIOS resource allocation and is waiting to have those values applied.

• A check mark indicates that the device has been configured with appropriate values and is waiting for those values to be applied.

If no icon is displayed, the device is configured correctly into the kernel.

For each selected device, you can:

• modify resource allocation

• enable BIOS resource allocation

• disable the device
