When Auto is selected, the system peripherals are automatically configured during power up. The options below for the
PCI/IDE Interfaces, Floppy Interface, Serial Port 1 and Serial Port 2 Addresses, and the Parallel Port Address can not
be modified. The settings displayed for those options reflect the current state of the hardware, and not necessarily the
state after reboot.

Addresses, and Parallel Port Address can be explicitly configured.
