Using the System Setup Program
4-9
6HWXS±3DVVZRUG±±±±±
Setup Password
lets you restrict access to your computer±s System Setup program
in the same way that you restrict access to your system with the system password
feature. The settings are:
²
Not Enabled
(the default)
²
Enabled
²
Disabled by Jumper
(jumper removed)
NOTE: Read ²Using the Setup Password Feature³ found later in this chapter for
instructions on assigning a setup password and using or changing an existing setup
password. See ²Disabling a Forgotten Password³ found later in this chapter for
instructions on disabling a forgotten setup password.

Mouse
enables or disables the system±s built-in Personal System/2 (PS/2)-compatible
mouse port. Disabling the mouse allows an expansion card to use IRQ12.
6HULDO±3RUW±´±DQG±6HULDO±3RUW±·±
Serial Port 1
and
Serial Port 2
configure the system±s built-in serial ports. These
options can be set to
Auto
(the default) to automatically configure a port, to a particu-
lar designation (
COM1
or
COM3
for
Serial
±
Port
±
1
;
COM2
or
COM4
for
Serial Port 2
),
or to
Off
±
to disable the port.
If you set a serial port to
Auto
and add an expansion card containing a port configured
to the same designation, the system automatically remaps the built-in port to the next
available port designation that shares the same interrupt request (IRQ) setting as
follows:
²
COM1 (input/output [I/O] address 3F8h), which shares IRQ4 with COM3, is
remapped to COM3 (I/O address 3E8h).
²
Likewise, COM2 (I/O address 2F8h), which shares IRQ3 with COM4, is
remapped to COM4 (I/O address 2E8h).
NOTE: When two COM ports share an IRQ setting, you can use either port as neces-
sary,
but you may not be able to use them both at the same time
. If the second
port (COM3 or COM4) is also in use, the built-in port is turned off.
3DUDOOHO±3RUW±±±±
Parallel Port
configures the system±s built-in parallel port.
Parallel Port
can be set to
378h
(the default), to alternate addresses
278h
or
²
3BCh
,
²
or to
Off
to disable the port.
NOTE: Do not set
Parallel Port
to
278h
if you have an Extended Capabilities Port
(ECP) device connected to the port.
