After you have run the ICU for your non-Plug and Play ISA expansion cards and it has configured all your Plug and Play and PCI expansion cards, you can use the utility to lock the configuration of your Plug and Play and PCI expansion cards so that they are always assigned the same resources. See “Locking and Unlocking Cards” found later in this chapter for details.

Before using the ICU, make a backup copy of the ICU diskette by performing the fol- lowing steps.

NOTE: If you received an ISA Configuration Utility Diskette with your system, you should use this procedure to create a backup of that diskette.
