Onboard FDD Controller 

Select Enabled if your system has a floppy disk controller (FDD) installed on the system board 
and you wish to use it.  If you install add-on FDC or the system has no floppy drive, select 
Disabled in this field.  The settings are: Enabled and Disabled. 

Onboard Serial Port 1/Port 2 

Select an address and corresponding interrupt for the first and the second serial ports.  The 
settings are: 3F8/IRQ4, 2E8/IRQ3, 3E8/IRQ4, 2F8/IRQ3, Disabled, Auto. 

UART2 Mode  

This item allows you to determine which InfraRed(IR) function of the onboard I/O chip, this 
functions uses. 

Onboard Parallel Port 

There is a built-in parallel port on the on-board Super I/O chipset that Provides Standard, ECP, 
and EPP features. It has the following option:

 

Disabled

 

 

(3BCH/IRQ7)/

 

Line Printer port 0 

(278H/IRQ5)/

  

Line Printer port 2

 

(378H/IRQ7)

  

Line Printer port 1

 

Parallel Port Mode 

SPP  

: Standard Parallel Port 

EPP  

: Enhanced Parallel Port 

ECP 

: Extended Capability Port  

 

SPP/EPP/ECP/ECP+EPP 

To operate the onboard parallel port as Standard Parallel Port only, choose “SPP.”  To 
operate the onboard parallel port in the EPP modes simultaneously, choose “EPP.”  By 
choosing “ECP”, the onboard parallel port will operate in ECP mode only.  Choosing 
“ECP+EPP” will allow the onboard parallel port to support both the ECP and EPP modes 
simultaneously.  The ECP mode has to use the DMA channel, so choose the onboard 
parallel port with the ECP feature.  After selecting it, the following message will appear: 
“ECP Mode Use DMA” at this time, the user can choose between DMA channels 3 to 1.  
The onboard parallel port is EPP Spec. compliant, so after the user chooses the onboard 
parallel port with the EPP function, the following message will be displayed on the screen: 
“EPP Mode Select.”  At this time either EPP 1.7 spec. or EPP 1.9 spec. can be chosen.
