Hot-Plug PCI and Windows - ARCHIVE

Overview To take advantage of Hot-Plug PCI support on Windows operating systems, manufacturers of hot-pluggable PCI devices and Hot-Plug PCI controllers should develop standard Plug and Play drivers for their devices, and implement insertion and removal notifications as defined in ACPI 1.0b. Hot-Plug PCI controllers should also implement the HPP object as defined in ACPI 2.0 for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, and follow standard rules for implementing ACPI events when connecting to General Purpose Events (GPEs), as described in this paper.
