I went to the BIOS and found the actual values, however I don't
understand what I am looking at exactly. There is only one serial
port on my computer, but in the BIOS there were two different
addresses listed, A and B. One was listed at 3F8H/IRQ4 and the other
was at 2F8H/IRQ3. I don't understand hex, so I'm not sure what to do
with those numbers.

Any pointers as to where to look for this information? What I seemed
to find on the topic was either sparse or more technical than I can
wrap my head around right now.
