Serial & Parallel settings in BIOS

#1 Post by tom3k380 » Sat Dec 11, 2010 5:47 am

Can someone tell me what are the settings for SERIAL & PARALLEL in the BIOS are for?

What will happen if I enable them?

I got a R500-2716PV3.

If you had a dock those settings would enable the serial and parallel ports on it.
