    • A system for managing the assignment of device drivers to devices of a computer system. The computer system can maintain device-related information for a primary device and for devices that are "compatible" with the primary device. This device information supplies an indication of whether a device driver intended for primary use with a device is maintained by the computer system. Moreover, the device information provides an indication of whether one or more device drivers compatible with the primary device are maintained by the computer system. During assignment of device drivers to devices of the computer system, the device information is examined to determine whether the intended device driver for the primary device is available to support the operations of that device. If not, the device information is examined to determine whether a device driver for a device that is compatible with the primary device is available for supporting computer operations of the primary device. In this event, if the device information lists more than one device that is compatible with the primary device, then the compatible device having the highest priority or ranking can be selected and the device driver for the selected device is used to support the operations of the primary device.
    • 一种用于管理设备驱动程序分配到计算机系统的设备的系统。 计算机系统可以维护主设备和与主设备“兼容”的设备的设备相关信息。 该设备信息提供计算机系统是否维护旨在与设备一起使用的设备驱动程序的指示。 此外,设备信息提供与计算机系统是否维持与主设备兼容的一个或多个设备驱动器的指示。 在将设备驱动程序分配给计算机系统的设备期间,检查设备信息以确定主设备的预期设备驱动程序是否可用于支持该设备的操作。 如果没有,则检查设备信息以确定与主设备兼容的设备的设备驱动程序是否可用于支持主设备的计算机操作。 在这种情况下,如果设备信息列出与主设备兼容的多个设备,则可以选择具有最高优先级或等级的兼容设备,并且使用所选设备的设备驱动程序来支持 主要设备

    • A method and system are disclosed for invoking a limited or "fail-safe" functionality from a computer system having a graphical user interface (GUI). In one aspect, a computer operating system having GUI functionality can be activated with two different sets of GUI features. Normally, the operating system provides a full complement of GUI features. Alternatively, the operating system provides a more limited set of GUI features. The operating system invokes the limited set of GUI features either in response to a user command, such as a keyboard function key pressed during the bootstrap loading sequence of the operating system, or automatically in response to a failure of an attempt by the computer system to load the normal complement of GUI functions. With the limited set of GUI features, the user of the computer can take advantage of the power of graphical user interfaces even when the computer system is not operating normally. For example, the user can run graphically based diagnostic and repair programs from the "fail-safe" mode. The invention finds application in stand-alone and networked computer systems and, in particular, in systems that store the bulk of the operating system software on a remote server accessible only by network.
    • 公开了一种用于从具有图形用户界面(GUI)的计算机系统调用有限或“故障安全”功能的方法和系统。 在一个方面,具有GUI功能的计算机操作系统可以利用两组不同的GUI特征来激活。 通常,操作系统提供了完整的GUI功能。 或者,操作系统提供更有限的一组GUI特征。 操作系统响应于用户命令来调用有限的GUI特征,诸如在操作系统的引导加载序列期间按下的键盘功能键,或者响应于计算机系统尝试失败而自动响应 加载GUI功能的正常补充。 使用有限的GUI功能,即使计算机系统运行不正常,计算机的用户也可以利用图形用户界面的优势。 例如,用户可以从“故障安全”模式运行基于图形的诊断和修复程序。 本发明可以在独立和联网的计算机系统中应用,特别是在仅可由网络访问的远程服务器上存储大部分操作系统软件的系统中。

    • A system for allocating resources for use by devices of a computer. Device information for the devices of the computer is collected to uniquely identify the devices and to describe the device characteristics associated with the operation of those devices with the computer. A list of device configurations is constructed in response to the collection of device information. Each device is represented by at least one device configuration, which defines the resource element requirements for the corresponding device. Computer resources, which support the functions of the devices within the computer, are allocated based upon the device configurations and the availability of the desired resources. This allocation process prevents a potential conflicting use of computer resources by the installed devices.

    • A method of individually isolating a circuit board that has been added to an expansion slot of a computer system. If a conflict exists between the circuit board and other resources of the computer system, the present invention isolates the memory resource requirements of the circuit board from the computer system. The memory resources requirements of the circuit board may be isolated from the computer system by disabling access to the memory of the computer system which is generally designated for circuit board use. Access to this memory may be disabled by disabling an address line of the expansion slot in which the circuit board has been added. In a computer system utilizing an industry standard bus system the present invention disables address A19 of the expansion slot. A latch is typically coupled to the address line corresponding to the memory range generally designated for circuit board use for selectively disabling the address line so that memory resources requirements of the circuit board is isolated from the computer system. The present invention also may isolate the input and output resource requirements of the circuit board from the computer system while the memory resources are isolated. The input and output resource requirements of the circuit board may be isolated by selecting a control line that prevents the circuit board from communicating with input and output lines of computer system.
