Set this value to allow the serial port to use 3F8 as its I/O port
address and IRQ4 for the interrupt address. This is the default set-
ting. The majority of serial port 1 or COM1 ports on computer sys-
tems 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 sys-
tem will not use a serial device, it is best to set this port to Disabled.

cally becomes unavailable.
