Configuration Methods

Does somebody know about the difference between configuration methods? #1 seems standard but there is minimal info about the second or the differences. Additions welcome - Combuster 08:47, 18 December 2006 (CST)

Configuration Mechanism #2 is the enhanced configuration mechanism provided for PCI Express. You can now read about it in the lovely new PCI Express article. --54616e6e6572 07:05, 9 April 2010 (UTC)


Is it just me or is the code segment provided a very horrible example. And it doesn't explain what happens with what the pciConfigReadWord return. And the typing of the code is just.. not right. -Earlz 03:35, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

IRQ routing

I've noticed that there isn't any information on IRQ routing. Having researched this a little, I found this page, which contains the specification for the IRQ routing table unless ACPI gets involved. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about the PCI specification to edit some of the information into the page. Could somebody see if they can have a go at this? --Computafreak 16:49, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Disclaimer Can Be Removed

I have carefully gone through the PCI Local Bus Specification v3.0 and can happily say that all the information contained in the article is correct, so the disclaimer can be removed. -- 54616e6e6572 18:20, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

CardBus structure

I've added the CardBus structure, based upon this page, but it's untested at the moment. I think it'll work, but it still needs checking for errors. If anybody has additional information or corrections, please add them --Computafreak 13:08, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
