Description

Disabled

Set this value to prevent the serial port from
accessing any system resources. When this
option is set to Disabled, the serial port physically
becomes unavailable.

3F8/IRQ4

Set this value to allow the serial port to use 3F8
as its I/O port address and IRQ 4 for the interrupt
address. This is the default setting. The majority of
serial port 1 or COM1 ports on computer systems
use IRQ4 and I/O Port 3F8 as the standard setting.
The most common serial device connected to this
port is a mouse. If the system will not use a serial
device, it is best to set this port to Disabled.

2F8/IRQ3

Set this value to allow the serial port to use 2F8
as its I/O port address and IRQ 3 for the interrupt
address. If the system will not use a serial device,
it is best to set this port to Disabled.

3E8/IRQ4

Set this value to allow the serial port to use 3E8
as its I/O port address and IRQ 4 for the interrupt
address. If the system will not use a serial device,
it is best to set this port to Disabled.

2E8/IRQ3

Set this value to allow the serial port to use 2E8
as its I/O port address and IRQ 3 for the interrupt
address. If the system will not use a serial device,
it is best to set this port to Disabled.

Serial Port2 Address

This option specifies the base I/O port address and

Interrupt Request address of serial port 2. The Optimal

setting is 2F8/IRQ3. The Fail-Safe setting is Disabled.
