Re: [Newbie question] ISA card without PnP functionality

Thanks for your help.
I read about this directive and tried to use it, and something strange hapens.

I defined

[RecourceSection]
;ConfigPriority=NORMAL,FORCED
ConfigPriority=NORMAL
IOConfig=8@300
IRQConfig=10
IRQConfig=11

in the INF file.

When I’m trying to install the new hardware, I get a new screen which tells me
about the recourcesa the system will use for that device and displays a
recourc list.
This list is empty.
Do you know why?

Look at the LogConfig directive in the INF file description.
This will allow you to define an ISA card’s resources. You
can then used the Add Hardware control panel applet, select
the ISA version of your card, and you are off and running.
