There are several plug-in slots on the motherboard of the general-purpose computer. The interface cards must be inserted into the plug-in slots. These interface cards are mainly connected devices between peripheral devices and motherboards, so that the motherboard can control the market through the interface! 1 week k 6 is ready, the plug slots are advanced from the early I sa plug slot to the v I slave plug slot, and then the VISA plug slot further to the PCI plug slot until the popular AGP plug; I Cao. ^ In today's technological advancement, there are still occasions where only older motherboards need to be used, and some of these motherboards may encounter interface sockets and some of the interface interfaces. groove. When it is encountered that all the interfaces on the motherboard are full of interface cards, it is not easy to plug in another pci or 丨 to interface cards. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, in the national patent announcement No. 488533 The interface card having the interface of the interface of the ^ and (10) is arranged such that the interface card and the interface interface of the computer interface card and the insertion slot are interposed: differently, the specification of the insertion slot is further set, It is no longer limited to the difference of the interface of the splicing slot, and the interface card with the 1309777 is used to achieve the purpose of cost saving. n#, as shown in the first--, the interface card 1Q is installed with multiple interface cards. 1Q is located on the different edges and the periphery: the father is connected to the company (called the industry standard bus structure) (Talk to the younger brother: out of a connection interface 12, 13, these first and second connection interfaces 12, 13 The sub-hunting is connected to the same component u by different lines. Furthermore, the ruler card: () has a plug which is connected with the first and second connecting interfaces 12 and 13; the squatting 'side plug-in seat 14 is respectively installed on the edge of the interface card 10, and the interface card 10 is provided with the socket 14 The edge can be locked with a matching fixing plate 15, and the flat (4) is provided with an opening for the opening (not shown). The other case is the same as the ρπ insertion slot on the motherboard. The user has P AGP external card to make the material, can not be used on the host, because there is no AGp docking slot on the motherboard, so the user must purchase a new motherboard at an extra cost, resulting in The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned deficiencies, and proposes a method for providing an AGP card setting on a pci busbar slot to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art. The method of providing AGP card setting on the bus bar slot includes the transmission-detection signal to the motherboard; scanning the state of the plurality of bus pool slots on the motherboard; and using the external card to display the function of 1309777; The layout line of the PCI bus of the external AGP card is re-planned as the layout line of the AGP bus. [Embodiment] In order to enable the reviewing committee to further understand the present invention, the present invention is established. The technology, method and effect of the present invention are described in the following detailed description of the invention and the accompanying drawings. It is believed that the objects, features and features of the present invention can be The present invention is not limited to the description of the present invention. Generally, the display chips manufactured by the chip manufacturers are roughly classified into three types. The first one is a chip that only supports the AGP function, and the notebook computer can only be used for paperwork processing and cannot Insert AGP so there is no need for a very good chip at all, so add the display function on the display card to the display. This is a low-priced stand. Brother 2, we may want to play computer games, if using built-in The display chip can't show delicate motion, so we buy an AGP external card into the AGP slot. Thirdly, the method for providing the AGP card setting on the PCI bus slot designed by the present invention is simultaneously supported. If the user does not have the money to buy the card, the display function of the built-in chip is used, when the user buys the external card ( AGP) uses the external card's optional function and turns off the built-in chip function. The user buys a low-cost motherboard, and the motherboard only has a PC I interface, that is, only the built-in display chip and no AGP. However, if the user has an AGP card, now we pull all the PCI signals to AGP signal above, because PCI is defined, the defined bandwidth is very small, then when the AGP signal is defined in 1309777, the AGP signal pin and the PCI pin are the same, and the AGP function is more than the pci function. Better, just a few more feet, although the PCI and AGP pin definitions are different but the functions are the same. Please refer to the second figure. The second figure is a flowchart of a method for providing an AGP card setting on a pcl bus slot according to the present invention, which includes transmitting a detection signal to a motherboard (S100), and the detection signal is It is provided by a basic input/output system (BIOS), scans the status of a plurality of bus slots on the motherboard (S102), and determines whether there is an external AGP card (S1G4) on any PCI bus, and the external AGP The PCI bus of the card is the layout of the pci bus bar f new _ is the layout of the _ _ face, secret, if the judgment result is yes, the function of using an external AGP card for display (S106), otherwise, right If the result of the determination is negative, the function of displaying the display built-in wafer is used (S108). The difference from the prior art is that the conventional technology uses the interface card to achieve the desired function, and the problem to be solved by the present invention is that the display chip of the work 6 of the original AGP can be used to use the interface card of the present invention. In fact, the invention uses the present invention to re-plan (10) the line of the AGP slot, so that the signal of a pci bus is converted into the signal of the AGP bus, so that the motherboard can be plugged in - the invention can indeed borrow The above-disclosed technology provides a design that is different from the conventional one, and can improve the overall use value, and does not see (four) objects or publicly use the patents of the invention patents. Application. However, the above-mentioned drawings and descriptions are merely examples of the present invention "°^777 "°^777, and other various modifications can be made in accordance with the above description in the spirit of the invention and the following definitions. Improvements by this artist, and these changes are still within the scope of the patent.
