Yes, not bad Yolanda. A neat trick I have found or read somewhere, to save
you from writing down your BIOS settings is to boot your PC normally with
your printer attached and then from the command prompt, reboot with the
reset switch or the CTRL-ALT-DEL and then enter your BIOS setup program.
Enter each options screen and then hit PRINT SCREEN and you will have a
printout of your settings for a permanent record. I don't think this will
work on a total cold start with the on/off switch as the LPT port is not
initialized yet.
