Serial/Parallel Port Configuration Submenu of the Advanced Menu

The Serial/Parallel Port Configuration submenu
provides the ability to set the I/O addresses and
interrupt levels for the serial, infrared, and parallel
ports of your notebook.

C A U T I O N

I/O addresses, DMA channels, and Interrupt levels can
be entered in various ways, including via the BIOS setup
utility, the control software for the I/O device, or the
hardware. If any two ports or devices, serial or parallel,
have the same I/O address assigned, your notebook will
not function normally. Please keep a record of original
settings before making any changes in the event that a
restoration is required. See your hardware and software
documentation as well as the setup utility to determine
settings, limitations, etc.

conflict.
