Resource.exe This is an utility related to crystal cs423x sound card chips. Intended for development, not for end-users. Came with pnp32.bat containing one line: resource /f=0x120 /r=pnp32.ini /e Appendix A Resource Data To operate correctly in a Plug & Play environment, the Crystal Audio System must be loaded with appropriate resource data. This can be achieved in several ways, the most secure of which is from an external EEPROM. Resource data and utilities are included on a separate disk. Please refer to the Crystal product data sheet and the RESOURCE.TXT file on the Utilities Disk. Many of the examples and screen shots in this document will vary according to specific resource data entries. Resource data can be used to configure the Crystal codec for Plug and Play operation or to disable BIOS Plug and Play operation. On the Utilities Disk, two batch files, PNP36.BAT and NOPNP36.BAT can be found. Running these batch files will program the EEPROM with data which enables or disables BIOS Plug & Play operation respectively. Note: If the EEPROM of a Crystal Audio System is programmed, the system MUST be rebooted so that it goes through a power cycle.
