ABSTRACT:
A computer program permits a user to simulate configuring add-in boards for a computer system. A board may be "pulled" from an inventory list for inspection, and may be "inserted" into any legal slot in the computer system. The program can automatically generate any permissible configurations for the board, i.e., configuration of the board's address resource allocations that avoid conflicts with the address resource allocations of other, already-installed boards. The user may select from among permissible configurations; for a selected configuration, the user may display to screen or printer a drawing of the switch- and jumper settings on the board that are needed to implement the selected configuration.
