3. Windows 2000 Configuration
Windows 2000 maintains a registry of all known hardware installed in the computer. Inside the
hardware registry Windows 2000 keeps track of all of the system resources, such as I/O
locations, IRQ levels, and DMA channels. The “Add New Hardware Wizard” utility in
Windows is designed to add new hardware and update this registry.
Windows 2000 will not
automatically configure the DS-100. The user is required to manually
configure Windows 2000 to match the resources set on the card.
