Hey There!
♦ A vectored interrupt is an I/O interrupt that tells the part of the computer, that handles I/O interrupts at the hardware level, that a request for attention from an I/O device has been received and and also identifies the device that sent the request.
♦ A non-vectored interrupt is where the interrupting device never sends an interrupt vector.
