Changing Plug and Play Control Features If you are installing a Plug and Play adapter or other device and experience problems, you might need to change certain settings in Plug and Play Control in the Configuration/Setup Utility program. Note: If you experience any error message related to Plug and Play adapters or devices, see "POST Message Charts" on page 71 for complete information on solving the problem. A setting that might affect the way a Plug and Play adapter behaves is the Address Decode setting. Most Plug and Play adapters use 16-bit address decoding (this is the default setting for Address Decode.). Some Plug and Play adapters have not fully implemented this addressing scheme. If you are experiencing problems with a Plug and Play adapter, changing the address decoding to 10-bit might fix the problem. Conversely, if you are experiencing an 1852 error message, changing the address decode setting to 16-bit might fix the problem. Another setting that affects any type of Plug and Play device is the Plug and Play Operating System setting. If you install a Plug and Play adapter or device and experience a 185x error message, and your computer will be loading a Plug and Play-compliant operating system, set this value to Yes. Note: Check your operating system documentation to determine if it supports this function. The 185x error messages occur because the computer is unable to configure all adapters and devices in the system due to conflicting resource assignments. Selecting Yes allows the configuration of Plug and Play devices to be performed by the operating system. To change Plug and Play control settings, select Advanced Setup and then Plug and Play Control. The next menu displays Address Decode and Plug and Play Operating System. Chapter 4.
