I/O Region
The items under this parameter allow you to reserve 16-byte memory
address ranges for non-PnP devices. When the system configures
PnP devices, the address ranges that you marked will not be used
anymore.
You can assign memory addresses to non-PnP devices at random as
long as you cover the address range required by the device. For
example, for a card that requires 178h-188h address, you have to set
regions 170h-17Fh and 180h-18Fh to
Yes
