Evaluating your new hardware The documentation that came with your new hardware should contain information about required settings and the instructions on how to install the hardware. Study the documentation carefully. If the documentation refers you to information about your computer's I/O addresses, system interrupt requests (IRQs), or DMA channel assignments, see "Appendix A. Specification tables" on page A-1. For conflicts with system resources used by adapter cards If you install new hardware in your system, it might attempt to use a system resource that is already assigned. If you install a PCI adapter card, the system BIOS automatically detects it, assigns an available system resource to it, and configures your computer to use the card. Follow the procedure in the section "Resolving resource conflicts" on page 5-4. For conflicts with other system resources If you install hardware that creates conflicts with other system resources, you may receive an error message the first time you turn on your computer after you have installed the new hardware. If you receive an error message, use the Windows Device Manager to reassign system resources. See the section "Using the Windows Device Manager" on page 5-4 for instructions. Refer also to "Appendix A. Specification tables" on page A-1. 5-2 IBM Personal Computer User Guide
