  2. CompactPCI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CompactPCI

    Hot-plugging is a supported feature of CompactPCI. Some of the pins are slightly longer to provide proper grounding when devices are inserted and removed. The backplanes can be designed for 3.3 V VIO or 5 V VIO operation. These are differentiated by having 'Cadmium Yellow' coloured key for 3.3V or 'Brilliant Blue' colour for 5V operation.

  3. Peripheral Component Interconnect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_Component...

    Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) [3] is a local computer bus for attaching hardware devices in a computer and is part of the PCI Local Bus standard. The PCI bus supports the functions found on a processor bus but in a standardized format that is independent of any given processor's native bus.

  4. PCI configuration space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_configuration_space

    One of the major improvements the PCI Local Bus had over other I/O architectures was its configuration mechanism. In addition to the normal memory-mapped and I/O port spaces, each device function on the bus has a configuration space, which is 256 bytes long, addressable by knowing the eight-bit PCI bus, five-bit device, and three-bit function numbers for the device (commonly referred to as the ...

  5. PCI Mezzanine Card - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_mezzanine_card

    PMC-X (PCI-X PMC) defined by the VITA 39 standard; PPMC (aka PrPMC; processor PMC) defined by the VITA 32 standard. I.e. for allowing processors to have host or monarch, support on a PMC. Additional signaling is defined so that the PrPMC can work as the host processor on a PCI bus. The intention is to allow a monarch PMC to control the PCI bus.

  6. Message Signaled Interrupts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_Signaled_Interrupts

    Traditionally, a device has an interrupt line (pin) which it asserts when it wants to signal an interrupt to the host processing environment. This traditional form of interrupt signalling is an out-of-band form of control signalling since it uses a dedicated path to send such control information, separately from the main data path.

  7. Edge connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge_connector

    The edge connector is a money-saving device because it only requires a single discrete female connector (the male connector is formed out of the edge of the PCB), and they also tend to be fairly robust and durable. They are commonly used in computers for expansion slots for peripheral cards, such as PCI, PCI Express, and AGP cards.

    If you're unable to launch McAfee, try rebooting your computer. This should refresh your system cache and clear out any errors that might've caused this behavior from the software. Once your computer has restarted, try again to launch McAfee.If the problem persists, uninstall McAfee and reinstall the software.

  9. Legacy Plug and Play - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legacy_Plug_and_Play

    The sound card Sound Blaster AWE32 PNP CT3990 had a Plug-and-Play ISA Bus interface chip (large square chip, mid of bottom row).. The term Legacy Plug and Play, [1] also shortened to Legacy PnP, [2] describes a series of specifications and Microsoft Windows features geared towards operating system configuration of devices, and some device IDs are assigned by UEFI Forum.
