Devices and I/O Ports

This menu allows you to change values for serial and parallel
ports, drives and drive interfaces, video and mouse.
Serial Ports 1 and 2
Use these two fields to select the I/O ports and interrupts
used by the two motherboard serial ports. The defaults
correspond to the logical ports COM1 and COM2
respectively.
PCI AT Disk Interface
This item selects whether the PCI IDE interface is enabled,
and if it is, sets the data transfer rate. All hard disk drives
supplied with the system support the Fast mode, older disks
may require the Normal setting.
ISA AT Disk Interface
This item selects whether the ISA IDE interface is enabled. In
this application the ISA IDE interface is intended primarily for
ATA-PI compliant CD-ROM drives, and the interface can safely
be disabled unless such a drive is connected to the ISA IDE
interface.
ISA AT Disk Interface Address
This item selects whether the ISA IDE interface is addressed
at the primary or secondary set of addresses. By default the
ISA IDE interface uses the secondary set of addresses, in order
for it to use the primary addresses the PCI IDE interface must
be disabled.
Note
In order for the ISA IDE interface to act as the primary IDE interface,
the PCI IDE interface must be physically disabled and the ISA
interface connected to IRQ 14, this is accomplished by jumpers on
the motherboard. Refer to Appendix A of this manual.
