PCI express and Message signaled interupts
Posted by Frank The Tank on July 25th, 2007


Hi
I am doing my first PCI express driver, Does anybody know if you have to do
anything different at the driver level when using MSI's instead of the legacy
PCI
interupt system. Or does the system bios and OS take care of it for us. I
can't seem to find any info on this

Thanks, this leads to another question of course

Since I will be using Windows server 2003, Does this mean that MSI's are not
supported in Win 2000/2003? I will look around for more info but I thought
I'd ask.

No it's not supported on Server 2003.
