PCI Error Messages 

Error Message	FRU/Action
PCI device(s) removed	1. One or more PCI add-in devices
since last power up:	appears to have been removed since
PCI vendor ID=xxxx, device	the last execution of POST
ID=xxxx previously in slot x	This could be due to a catastrophic
	failure of the PCI device rather than its
	actual physical removal.
PCI device(s) added	1. One or more PCI add-in devices
since last power up:	appears to have been added since
PCI vendor ID=xxxx, device	the last execution of POST
ID=xxxx previously in slot x	It may have been moved from
	another slot. This is not an error.
	The device was enabled and had resources assigned.
Unable to assign requested	1. A requested PCI resource (from the
resources:	PCI Device Configuration Block) could not
PCI vendor ID=xxxx, device	be assigned as requested due to a conflict
ID=xxxx in slot x	with a non-PCI device or to a conflict with
	another requested PCI resource
