Frequently Asked Questions You can disable your ThinkPad's serial port in order to free resources for another communication device, such as the infrared port.

Start the ThinkPad Configuration program. 3. Click on the Serial Port ( ) button. 4. Click on Enable. A "Warning" might appear that the hardware resource is in use by another communication device. 5. Click on OK. The computer restarts. Note: If you check your serial port and it is already enabled, you can use it immediately without changing any settings. After your serial port is enabled, you can use it as a communication port. If it does not work properly, you might have a problem with the communication software application on your system or the device that you are trying to communicate with. Check the online help system for your communication software if the other device appears to be working properly.
