1.
Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any.
See Chapter 5 for information on BIOS setup.

When using PCI cards on shared slots, ensure that the drivers support
“Share IRQ” or that the cards do not need IRQ assignments. Otherwise,
conflicts will arise between the two PCI groups, making the system unstable
and the card inoperable.
