3.4 BIOS
The BIOS on the AI5VG motherboard provides the standard BIOS
functions plus the following additional features:
1. DMI (Desktop Management Interface)
The motherboard supports DMI to enable computer system management
in an enterprise.
2. ISA Plug and Play (PnP) Extension
Unlike PCI cards which are plug and play, ISA cards require setting
jumpers to resolve hardware conflicts. To make a computer system PnP,
an ISA PnP standard is established and supported by new OSes, such as
Windows 95. Under Windows 95, the motherboard BIOS must have ISA
PnP extension to support the new ISA PnP cards.
