The ACPI BIOS generates ACPI tables and loads ACPI tables into main memory. Much of the firmware ACPI functionality is provided in bytecode of ACPI Machine Language (AML), a Turing-complete, domain-specific low-level language, stored in the ACPI tables. [7] To make use of the ACPI tables, the operating system must have an interpreter for the ...
WHEA "builds on the PCI Express Advanced Reporting to provide more detailed information about system errors and a common reporting structure." [4] WHEA allows third-party software to interact with the operating system and react to certain hardware events.
The ASPI manager software provides an interface between ASPI modules (device drivers or applications with direct SCSI support), a SCSI host adapter, and SCSI devices connected to the host adapter. The ASPI manager is specific to the host adapter and operating system ; its primary role is to abstract the host adapter specifics and provide a ...
The sound card Sound Blaster AWE32 PNP CT3990 had a Plug-and-Play ISA Bus interface chip (large square chip, mid of bottom row).. The term Legacy Plug and Play, [1] also shortened to Legacy PnP, [2] describes a series of specifications and Microsoft Windows features geared towards operating system configuration of devices, and some device IDs are assigned by UEFI Forum.

SCI from the Embedded Controller to inform the ACPI driver (in the OS) of an ACPI Event; As a core system component, the embedded controller is always on when power is supplied to the mainboard. To communicate with the main computer system, several forms of communication can be used, including ACPI, SMBus, or shared memory.
Advanced power management (APM) is a technical standard for power management developed by Intel and Microsoft and released in 1992 [1] which enables an operating system running an IBM-compatible personal computer to work with the BIOS (part of the computer's firmware) to achieve power management.
In computing, the System Management BIOS (SMBIOS) specification defines data structures (and access methods) that can be used to read management information produced by the BIOS of a computer. [1] This eliminates the need for the operating system to probe hardware directly to discover what devices are present in the computer.
The driver for this device has been blocked from starting because it is known to have problems with Windows. 49: Windows cannot start new hardware devices because the system hive is too large and exceeds the Registry Size Limit. 52: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device.
