Chapter 2 BIOS Setup PNP OS Installed When set to YES, BIOS will only initialize the PnP cards used for booting (VGA, IDE, SCSI). The rest of the cards will be initialized by the PnP operating systems, like WindowsTM95. When set to NO, BIOS will initialize all the PnP cards. Therefore for non-PnP operating system (DOS, NetwareTM), this option must set to "NO". Reset Configuration Data The system BIOS supports the PnP feature so the system needs to record which resource is assigned and proceeds resources from conflict. Every peripheral device has a node, which is called ESCD. This node records which resources are assigned to it. The system needs to record and update ESCD to the memory locations. These locations (4K) are reserved at the system BIOS. If Disabled (default) is chosen, the system's ESCD will update only when the new configuration varies from the last one. If Enabled is chosen, the system is forced to update ESCDs and then is automatically set to the "Disabled" mode.
