ISA Legacy Resources
If you choose ISA Legacy Resources, you will be presented with the
following screen and message:
ISA Legacy resources ( DMA, Interrupts, Memory, and Input/Output
( I/O ) Ports ) are resources that are used by non-Plug and Play ISA
adapter cards. Your computer will not automatically detect these adapter
cards. You must set the resources used by ISA Legacy cards to
Not Available to prevent the System BIOS from assigning these resources to
Plug and Play cards.
Memory Resources
I/O Port Resources
DMA Resources
Interrupt Resources
Choosing any of these gives you a screen with the appropriate information
to either set as AVAILABLE, or NOT AVAILABLE. For example, the Memory
Resources screen gives you each memory address that can be changed or
allocated for an ISA card. The DMA screen lets you assign DMA values to
your existing ISA Legacy cards. The same applies to the I/O Ports, and
Interrupt Resources. This does not change or affect what your devices are
actually set at. It is used to assign a value that the CMOS recognizes as
NOT AVAILABLE, so that when a true Plug and Play device is added, it does
not try to assign it to something that is already being used. If you are
not familiar with the settings in this menu, it is best to leave it alone.
If you later have trouble with a new Plug and Play device, you may need to
go back and assign values to this area.
