Using Configuration Files
Configuration (or CFG) files provide information to the system
about a cards functions and resource requirements so your
computer can allocate its resources efficiently. They also
provide instructions for setting any switches and jumpers on
ISA cards.
You can copy to your Reference diskette a configuration file for
each card you install using the EISA Configuration utility. EISA
cards come with the necessary CFG file to allow the program to
configure the card automatically. See your EISA card
documentation for more information.
ISA option cards may come with the necessary CFG file for this
program. If you do not have a CFG file for your ISA card, you
can still install the card in your system. However, you should
configure the rest of your system and then follow the
instructions that came with the card to set any of its switches or
jumpers.
