COM 2 Settings

To ensure COM 2 (the preferred COM port for a Windows NT 4.0 installation) is available for the Modem to use, Actiontec recommends disabling COM 2 throughout the System BIOS Setup routine. To do this:

1.See the computer’s documentation for instructions to run BIOS Setup.

2.Once BIOS Setup is running, locate the “Integrated Peripherals” section.

3.Locate the “COM 2” or “COM Port B” entry and disable it.

4.Save the settings before exiting.

The computer is configured to use the Modem. Next, go to chapter 3, “Installing the Modem,” to continue installing and configuring the Modem.
