PERIPHERAL SETUP
This setup works mostly on Multi-I/O Chip (W83977F). The options are used to
change the Chipset's registers. Carefully change any default setting to meet your
application needs. The only concern is Onboard Serial Port 2. If you want to use
the IrDA port, you have to configure the SIR or ASKIR model in the BIOS's Periph-
eral Setup's COM2; the RS-232 COM2 will be disabled.
Onboard FDC >:
Used to enable the FDC on your board. If you set it to
Auto
, the BIOS will
automatically decide if the FDC should be enabled.
Onboard Serial Port A (/B) >:
Specify the I/O port address of the serial port 1(/2). If you set it
to
Auto
, the BIOS will decide the correct I/O port address automatically.
