Bios ver. RL86510A.86.0089.P21 support COM1, only. Is it possible to get support to COM2 and COM3 via a PCI serial card?

Please anyone give details.

The BIOS is typically placed in a ROM chip that comes with the computer (it is often called a ROM BIOS). This ensures that the BIOS will always be available and will not be damaged by disk failures. It also makes it possible for a computer to boot itself. Because RAM is faster than ROM, though, many computer manufacturers design systems so that the BIOS is copied from ROM to RAM each time the computer is booted. This is known as shadowing.

ROM is a Flash Memory. It's the extension for Read Only Memory.

BIOS is work for Physical hardware Basic Input Output System.
