Hi,
   Not heard of that option for the parallel port before (W2K prints to 
parallel printer okay from this box, anyways), and I don't recall seeing 
"bi-directional" listed as an available optiopn in the bios. I'll check the 
MoBo manual to see if this is listed.

Is there a reason for using this option?

Stacey
