Use the 9-pin serial connector to attach a serial device to the computer\
. The serial 
connector passes data in serial format (1 bit at a time over one line)\
. This connector 
supports a variety of devices, including a serial mouse, that require se\
rial data 
transmission. If you reconfigure your hardware, you may need pin number \
and signal 
information for the serial connector.

parallel connector is used primarily for printers. The parallel connecto\
r transmits data 
in parallel format, where 8 data bits (one byte) are sent simultaneous\
ly over eight 
separate lines.
The parallel connector can also be configured for compatibility with the\
 PS/2 standard. 
Support for the EPP feature improves network adapter performance (adapt\
ers connect 
to the computers parallel connector and require the appropriate softwar\
e drivers from 
the adapters manufacturer).
If you reconfigure your hardware, you may need pin number and signal inf\
ormation 
for the parallel connector.
