All PCI-device information will be shown Æ pay careful attention

ÆThere will be a PCI device with vendor_ID=1234, device_ID=1002 (OME-PCI- 1002)

If the Plug & Play ROM-BIOS successfully detects the OME-PCI-1002 card during the power-on state, the DOS and Windows software driver will also be able to detect the card.
