to the computer by providing an interface between the expansion bus and a peripheral device. Examples of adapter cards include network cards 
and sound cards.

Autodesk Device Interface 
AGP 
accelerated graphics port. AGP is a dedicated graphics port that provides a faster interface between the video subsystem and system memory 
than a PCI graphics device and allows conventional memory to be used for video-related tasks. The improved interface enables AGP to deliver a 
smooth, true-color video image.

config.sys file). That start-up file contains commands that define the characteristics of each device connected to your computer, and it finds and 
executes programs stored in locations other than the active directory.
