Peripheral SETUP5DXP
Peripheral Setup
The WinBIOS Setup options described in this section are selected by choosing the
appropriate high-level icon from the WinBIOS Setup main menu.
The settings are Auto or Manual. When set to Auto, WinBIOS automatically
detects all the peripheral installed in the system and configures the onboard I/O
(serial ports, parallel ports, floppy controllers) automatically. All other
Peripheral Setup option settings are ignored. Any serial port, parallel port,
floppy controller on an adapter card in an expansion slot is configured before
onboard I/O. If the offboard serial ports are configured to specific starting I/O
ports via jumper settings, WinBIOS configures the onboard serial ports to
avoid conflicts. If Manual is selected, the setting chosen by the end user in
Peripheral Setup apply. WinBIOS reports any I/O conflicts after displaying the
BIOS Configuration Summary Screen, but only if Manual is chosen.
