Devices and I/O ports
Serial ports A & B (COM1 & COM2)
This allows you to select the I/O ports and interrupts used by the
two serial ports. The system will normally auto-configure, so it is
best to leave these at the default settings.
Parallel port
This allows you to set the I/O port and interrupt used by the
parallel port. It should be left at ‘Auto-configure’ unless required to
be set to one of the following:
Parallel Port Mode Description
Standard Used for output only.
Extended Bi-directional Simple two-way data.
EPP Enhanced Parallel Port mode.
ECP Extended Capabilities Port mode.
