Upgrades and Options
■
On system power-up and reboot, BIOS initiates a
scan sequence looking for Plug-and-Play option
boards installed since the last power up or reboot.
The Plug-and-Play scan sequence is as follows:
First - BIOS scans for any Plug-and-Play ISA
option board installed in slots P01 - P04,
starting with slot P01.
Second - BIOS scans for any Plug-and-Play PCI
option board installed in slots P05 - P10,
starting with slot P05.
Always install option boards in the first available
slot in the scan sequence. As an example, if there
are ISA or EISA option boards installed in slots P01
and P02 of your system and slots P03 and P04 are
vacant, install your Plug-and-Play option board into
slot P03.

Table 5-1 lists the option boards you may add to your
system and provides information on slot location.
