On older computers, there was often a nine pin (or 25 pin) serial port for connecting modems, some other communications equipment or terminals, or special printers (like line printers, or receipt printers.)
These days, there are not many needs for a serial port, if you have any internet connection besides a modem.
If you do not use a modem, and do not need the serial port, disabling the port in your computer's BIOS (the "SETUP" screen that is announced right before your computer boots) then you may free up IRQs (computer resources) that allow other add-in cards and other peripherals to work better.
If it's not compatible with your motherboard.
An occasion when you need to disable the ECP mode for parallel port is when resource conflicts occur. In such a case, the EPP mode is the better option.
Yes. Check the form factor if you intend to use consumer components with the server motherboard, because you might need to do some work.
4-4-1 SERIAL PORT 4-4-2 PARALLEL PORT 4 SHORT BEEPS COULD BE A BAD TIMER 1-2-1 You have a bad timer chip on the motherboard. You need a new motherboard.
In order to find information on the various sockets on a motherboard someone would need to actually know the manufacturer and serial number of the board. This is written on it. With that information the person can check the maker's site for details of what sockets are where on it.
Generally, you can't. It might be possible with Browning, but, you will need to call them with the serial number.
With non-integrated motherboards, the initial cost is higher because more individual components need to be purchased. intergrated motherboards contain built-in components that are normally on found by adding expansion cards. For example, a motherboard might have video and network capabilities built right into the board, so you don't have to purchase a separate video card and network card. The obvious downside to this is that if the video or network component ceases to function, you will either have to replace the entire motherboard or disable the malfunctioning onboard component
Your motherboard may need to be changed when your CPU is upgraded.
no because you need the following to do it:J&RA screwdriver,A Serial ATA interface cable, A Serial ATA-compatible power cable or adapter, A version of Windows with FAT32 and A system with a motherboard that has a Serial ATA connector on it.Most people dont have these things
i need drivers to motherboard shutle mv43 v3.1 please
so you can get sound
If you are moving your current processor into the upgraded motherboard, your current cooling fan does not need to be upgraded.
