4.8PCI / Plug and Play Setup

This section describes configuring the PCI bus system. PCI, or Personal Computer Interconnect, is a system that 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.
