Each time you use the RCU to configure your system, the system configuration infor-
mation is saved in a
.sci
file and in system memory. You should save the system
configuration information to a backup file that can be used to restore the information if
the
.sci
file is damaged or lost. The options for the
Maintain SCI Files Menu
category
are
Open
(the default) and
Save As
.
The
Open
option creates a backup file that overwrites the existing configuration. The
Save As
option allows you to select the filename under which you want the
.sci
file
saved.

The RCU automatically resolves resource conflicts between two PCI expansion cards.
It is extremely unusual for the RCU to fail in resolving a resource conflict between two
PCI expansion cards. If the RCU fails to resolve the conflict, see Chapter 12, ²Getting
Help,³ in your
Installation and Troubleshooting Guide
for information on obtaining
technical assistance. If the
Set Verification Mode
menu category is set to
Automatic
, the RCU tries to resolve the conflict. If the utility cannot resolve the con-
flict, some devices installed in the system are deactivated and the following message
is displayed:

If the caution message appears, press <Enter> to display a list of all cards installed in
your computer. The deactivated card is enclosed by < > symbols.
You can remove the card(s) with which it is in conflict, or change the resources on one
or more cards. See ²Removing an Expansion Card³ in Chapter 8 of the
Installation
and Troubleshooting Guide
.
If you remove the card(s) with which the new card is in conflict, or if you want to
change the resources of one or more cards, use the procedure described in the next
subsection.
NOTE: Locked cards may cause resource conflicts.
To unlock a card, use the following procedure:
1.

Step 3: View or Edit Details
menu (from the
Steps in Configuring
Your Computer
menu).
2.
Select
Lock/Unlock Boards
and press <Enter>.
3.
Select the card(s) you want to unlock, and press <Enter>.
4.
