Installing a Non-Plug-n-Play Internal Modem 19
Disabling a COM (Serial) Port
You can disable your COM ports three different ways:
Through the
CMOS
Most of today's newer computer systems allow you to
disable your COM port in the CMOS. Refer to your
computer manual for this procedure.
Through the
mother-
board
jumper
If your COM port is built into your motherboard, then
move a motherboard jumper to disable the COM port.
Refer to your computer manual for this procedure.
Through the
jumper on
the I/O Card
If the COM port is not located directly on your
motherboard, but is on a serial expansion card, then
refer to either your serial card manual or the
computer manual for this procedure.
