Micros WS5 BIOS Causing com 1 to not function

[tgonpos]

Can anyone help out with the bios update for a Micros WS5, need to reflashed in order to set the serial port com 1 IRQ to 12 so my printer can function.
Thanks,

Connect a keyboard to the unit and press the Delete key to enter BIOS. In the BIOS you can then reset BIOS to factory settings. Is this is the only reason behind wanting to update the BIOS?

I tried the factory reset in BIOS and yes the reason is because the IRQ on com1 is set to 6 instead of 12. Is there a way to change it to 12?

Thanks,

Looks like the WS5's don't allow any of the ports to use even numbers. I know Workstation 4 LX's you can.
How are you setting it up in the Configuration in Micros? What version of Micros are you running?

BIOS > SIO > Serial Port 1

BIOS > ODM > Special Configuration, Factory Restore option
