Re: BMI setup help

I am not a computer expert, but I called BMI before I had my computer built.
They said that they needed com port 1 so my mouse is different that usual,
it uses one of the nine pin ports on two I think.  I just know that you need
to allow BMI their com port 1.  Now how you will do this I do not know.
Sorry.
