Plug and Play Submenu
The Plug and Play Submenu lets you check or change the Configuration Mode parameters.
Use the Configuration Mode field to choose the method on how the BIOS gets information

BIOS to set up PCI and ISA Plug and Play expansion boards without conflicting with non-

Use BIOS Setup
−
The BIOS depends upon the information provided by run-time

no conflicts between ISA boards with Plug and Play capabilities and those
