System Board 1-251.7.2 Installing ISA CardsBoth PnP and non-PnP ISA cards require specific IRQs. Wheninstalling ISA cards, make sure that the IRQs required by these cardsare not previously assigned to PCI devices to avoid resource conflicts.Follow these steps when installing ISA cards:1. Remove all PnP cards installed in the system, if any.2. Install non-PnP ISA cards.3. Turn on the system.4. Use Windows 95 or ICU to manually assign the appropriate IRQsto the cards. This ensures that BIOS will not use the resourcesassigned to the non-PnP ISA cards.BIOS detects and configures only PnP cards.5. Turn off the system.6. Locate the expansion slots and install the PnP ISA and PCI cards.7. Turn on the system. This time PnP BIOS automatically configuresthe PnP ISA and PCI cards with the available resources.
