IRQ 12. Nevertheless, user can disable the PS/2 mouse function
by means of jumpers.
1.7
Input/Output Subsystem
To allow greater system feasibility, RHINO 5 has four ISA bus
expansion connectors and four PCI expansion connectors. One
of the expansion slots is shared by connectors that will
accommodate either an ISA or a PCI expansion, but not both at
the same time. Therefore, up to seven expansion slots can be
populated on RHINO 5 . Furthermore, all the PCI slots can
accept PCI bus master cards.
1.8
BIOS Subsystem
RHINO 5 uses Award ROM BIOS and is stored in Flash
EEPROM (1 M bits) which allows easy upgrade through the
utility found inside the diskette shipped with RHINO 5.
Inside the diskette you can find the BIOS update utility as well
as the most updated version of the BIOS for RHINO 5,
together with the BIOS reference manual in TEXT format. The
BIOS contains Setup utility, Power-On Self Tests (POST), and
PCI auto-configuration utility during boot-up.
