Hmm, maybe these new motherboards won't allow disabling this..Originally posted by me:
It's usually either in "Advanced" settings or "PnP/PCI Configuration" settings.
From Plug and Play BIOS Specification v1.0a:
The Plug and Play system BIOS POST must configure the system to operate with both Plug and Play aware, as well as nonPlug and Play operating system. In nonPlug and Play environments, either the system BIOS or the appropriate system software (device drivers) must configure all devices (Plug and Play ISA Cards, PCI devices, etc.). This will allow all environments to load exactly as they would on a standard PC compatible systems. However, in a Plug and Play environment, the system BIOS can now assist the operating system to perform features such as runtime configuration of system board devices and event recognition when system board devices have changed.
