Introduction to Plug and Play
In this articleThis section contains the following additional topics: PnP Components PnP Driver Design Guidelines Hardware Resources Plug and Play (PnP) is the part of Windows that enables a computer system to adapt to hardware changes with minimal intervention by the user. A user can add and remove devices without having to do manual configuration, and without knowledge of computer hardware. For example, a user can dock a portable computer and use the docking station keyboard, mouse, and monitor without making manual configuration changes. PnP requires support from device hardware, system software, and drivers. Initiatives in the hardware industry define standards for easy identification of add-in boards and system components.

The system software support for PnP, together with PnP drivers provides the following:
For a driver to qualify as PnP it must provide the required PnP entry points, handle the required PnP IRPs, and follow PnP guidelines.
