dvanced Menu Categories
To access the Advanced menu (see Figure 4-3), use the
arrow keys to highlight Advanced.
The Advanced menu allows you to set the serial and par-
allel addresses, set the parallel port mode, enable or
disable the on-board diskette controller, enable the Per-
sonal System/2 (PS/2)-compatible mouse, and enable or
disable the built-in SCSI controller. The Advanced menu
also lets you control the PCI scan sequence. The PCI scan
sequence determines which type of PCI device is scanned
first: built-in PCI drives or PCI devices installed in PCI
expansion slots.
The following subsections explain each of the System
Setup categories in the Advanced menu.
