In this chapter, we briefly discussed the role of Plug and Play architecture in Windows 2000. You also learned how hardware information is stored in the Windows NT/2000 registry, and what happens to this information when you configure hardware using Device Manager, or add/remove devices. Next we discussed the OnNow initiative, ACPI specification, power management, and registry keys responsible for power management on the computer. If your system is ACPI-compliant, there shouldn't be any hardware conflicts when you install new devices in the system.
