Plug and Play 
With Plug and Play and the Windows
® 
XP operating system, 
avoiding hardware conflicts is easy. Plug and Play is a 
computer standard that helps the system BIOS (basic input/
output system) and the operating system to automatically 
assign resources to Plug and Play-compliant devices. In 
theory, if every device connected to the computer is Plug and 
Play-compliant, no two devices will compete for the same 
system resources. Simply plug in the device and turn on your 
computer. The operating system automatically sets up your 
system to accommodate the new device.
If you install an older (legacy) device that the operating 
system cannot recognize, the operating system may have 
difficulty assigning resources to it. As a result, a hardware 
conflict can occur. To see what resources the operating 
system has assigned to the device, se
Resolving conflicts
There are three things you can do to resolve hardware 
conflicts:
Disable the device.
For an older device, remove it from the computer. For a 
Plug and Play device.
Disable another system component and use its resources 
for the new device.
Reconfigure the device so that its requirements do not 
conflict. Refer to the device’s documentation for 
instructions about changing settings on the device.
