How to enable ecp printer port in bios on hp

In the course of trying to get resources for soundblaster16 sound card I disabled the ecp printer port. Bad mistake.Now I need the port to use an external zip drive. Cannot seem to find info on how to go into bios to enable. I know that I have to hit the F1 key of HP computers (7410p with win98SE) but do not know what to do once I get there. Does anyone know where I can go to find the info or what I should do?

Hi ...

You should find the settings under....

BIOS Setup, "Advanced Menu Settings"

then

"Peripheral Configuration"

you may also want to boot to safe mode one time and goto device manager and remove any existing printer port entry's ....

Cheers
Jake
