Bad PCI Card

Postby Sivasakthi » Sat Nov 09, 2002 10:45 am

Hi All

If I insert a bad PCI card in a PCI slot, Why the processor is not getting instructions?

How a processor knows about PCI card before executing instructiuons?

Best regards

The bad PCI card may be jamming some essential system signals. A simple case - it holds RESET low.
