Onboard FDC Controller

Select Enabled if your system has a floppy disk controller (FDD) installed on the system board

and you wish to use it. If you install add-on FDC or the system has no floppy drive, select

Disabled in this field. The settings are: Enabled and Disabled.

settings are: 3F8/IRQ4, 2E8/IRQ3, 3E8/IRQ4, 2F8/IRQ3, Disabled, Auto.

Onboard Parallel Port

There is a built-in parallel port on the on-board Super I/O chipset that Provides Standard, ECP,

and EPP features. It has the following option:

Disabled

(3BCH/IRQ7)/ Line Printer port 0

(278H/IRQ5)/ Line Printer port 2

(378H/IRQ7) Line Printer port 1

Parallel Port Mode

SPP : Standard Parallel Port

EPP : Enhanced Parallel Port

ECP : Extended Capability Port

SPP/EPP/ECP/ECP+EPP

To operate the onboard parallel port as Standard Parallel Port only, choose “SPP.” To operate

the onboard parallel port in the EPP modes simultaneously, choose “EPP.” By choosing “ECP”,

the onboard parallel port will operate in ECP mode only. Choosing “ECP+EPP” will allow the

onboard parallel port to support both the ECP and EPP modes simultaneously. The ECP mode

has to use the DMA channel, so choose the onboard parallel port with the ECP feature. After

selecting it, the following message will appear: “ECP Mode Use DMA” at this time, the user can

choose between DMA channels 3 to 1. The onboard parallel port is EPP Spec. compliant, so

after the user chooses the onboard parallel port with the EPP function, the following message will

be displayed on the screen: “EPP Mode Select.” At this time either EPP 1.7 spec. or EPP 1.9

spec. can be chosen.
