PnP/PCI Configuration Setup
This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or Personal Computer Interconnect, is a
system which allows I/O devices to operate at speeds nearing the speed the CPU itself uses when
communicating with its own special components. This section covers some very technical items and it
is strongly recommended that only experienced users should make any changes to the default settings.

Select Yes if the system operating environment is
Plug-and-Play aware (e.g. Windows 95).
Reset Configuration Data
Normally, you leave this field Disabled. Select Enabled to
reset Extended System Configuration Data (ESCD) when you
exit Setup if you have installed a new add-on and the system
reconfiguration has caused such a serious conflict that the
operating system can not boot.
