Setting Options for Peripheral Controllers
When you select the Peripheral Setup icon from the
Setup window, you see the Peripheral Setup window. Use this
window to configure the computer’s integrated peripheral
devices (such as the parallel and serial ports) and controllers.
To avoid possible configuration problems, it is a good idea to
leave these options at their default settings.
The following table describes the Peripheral options.
