NOTE DESCRIBING DOS LIMITATIONS ON PORT ADDRESSING FOR PCI SERIAL CARDS. THESE LIMITATIONS MAY PARTICULARLY AFFECT THOSE USERS SETTING UP POS SYSTEMS. PCI serial cards do not generally work with most DOS POS systems. Those systems are looking for ports on 3f8 2f8 3e8 or 2e8. Lava PCI serial ports cannot install there nor can you change things from Windows so that things might work from a DOS window. On the other hand, some POS software lets you configure the serial port within the application to specific IO addresses and IRQs. If you have this capability, then run lavaconf.exe (located in the Win3.11 directory on the Lava Installation and Utilities diskette) and set the serial port settings in your POS software to what lavaconf.exe reports. If you do not have this capability in your POS software then these cards will not work for you and you must use an ISA card instead.
