The Compaq System Configuration utility performs a wide range of
configuration activities, including:

Provides switch and jumper settings
Resolves resource conflicts in areas such as memory, port addresses, and
interrupts (IRQs)
Manages the installation of memory, processor upgrades, and mass
storage devices such as hard drives, tape drives, and diskette drives
