slot. If you want a monitor to be the startup monitor, install a video adapter in slot 10, 11, or 12. When you install a PCI video adapter in one of these slots, the server BIOS automatically disables the integrated video controller. Table 1 contains information on the requirements for the PCI adapter slots and PCI buses in the server. Table 1.

You can install: a. A full-length or half-length, 32-bit or 64-bit, 5 V or Universal, hot-plug or non-hot-plug PCI adapter in slots 1-5 or 10-12. 66 MHz PCI adapters plugged into these slots will operate at 33 MHz. b. A full-length or half-length, 32-bit or 64-bit, 3.3 V or Universal, hot-plug or non-hot-plug PCI adapter in slots 6-7 and 8-9. A 33 MHz PCI adapter installed in one of these slots limits a 66 MHz PCI adapter installed on the same bus to 33 MHz. 3. To optimize performance, spread the installation of high-speed adapters, such as 66 MHz Ethernet adapters, between the two 66 MHz PCI buses. Configuring adapters: PCI devices automatically communicate with the server configuration information. This usually results in automatic configuration of a PCI device. From the Configuration/Setup utility program, you can select available resources for the adapter that you are installing. If a conflict does occur, see "Resolving configuration conflicts" on page 34. Refer to the documentation that comes with the adapter for information about required system resources. Then, make the appropriate jumper or switch settings on the adapter. 46 Netfinity Server HMM

If you want a monitor to be the startup monitor, install
a video adapter in slot 10, 11, or 12.
When you install a
PCI video adapter in one of these slots, the server BIOS

Table

Configuring adapters:
PCI devices automatically
communicate with the server configuration information.
This usually results in automatic configuration of a PCI
device.
From the Configuration/Setup utility program, you
can select available resources for the adapter that you are
installing.
If a conflict does occur, see “Resolving
configuration conflicts” on page
34.
Refer to the documentation that comes with the adapter for
information about required system resources.
Then, make
the appropriate jumper or switch settings on the adapter.

hot-plug or non-hot-plug PCI adapter in slots 1–5 or 10–12.
66 MHz PCI adapters plugged into these slots will operate at
