Parallel Port
WinBIOS checks the ISA Bus for off-board parallel ports. Any
parallel ports found on the ISA Bus are left at their assigned addres-
ses. The on-board Parallel Port is automatically configured with the
first available address not used by an off-board parallel port. The
default address assignment order is 3BCH, 378H, 278H. Note that
this same assignment order is used by WinBIOS to place the active
parallel port addresses in lower memory (BIOS data area) for con-
figuration as logical LPT devices.
The interrupts used by the Parallel Port may be assigned by a jumper
setting on some processor boards. For those boards on which the
selectable interrupt jumper is not available, IRQ7 is used for the on-
board Parallel Port (LPT1).
Manual BIOS Configuration Features
When Programming Mode is set to Manual, the options you set up
manually are used by WinBIOS when booting the system. WinBIOS
reports any I/O conflicts after displaying the BIOS Configuration
Summary screen.
