You must be careful with spelling, especially when discussing technical parameters.
Also, you will find that you might get more help if you take the time to actual spell important technical parameters correctly when posting a question to a forum
When the system first powers up, many Bios' show a table containing the amount of memory, processor type, serial and parallel port addresses etc.
Below this table, is a list showing all the PCI devices in the system. The listing shows (without column headings)
PCI Bus, Device, Function, Vendor Number, Vendor Part, Description.
The data from the first three columns is what you are after.
This data can change if you move a PCI device from one slot to another, or if you add a device, and re-configure the PCI bus in the CMOS.
All of the above occurs before you see the "Boot:" prompt.
