The device driver automatically checks the industry standard primary IDE port (address 1F0, interrupt 14) and secondary IDE port (address 170, interrupt 15). The /P parameter is not needed if your CD-ROM drive is connected to either of these ports. However, if your computer (or IDE adapter) uses different IDE port addresses or interrupts, you must [...]

/I: n This parameter enables interrupt sharing. If n =1, interrupt sharing is enabled. If n =0, interrupt sharing is disabled. The default value is 0 . Set this parameter to enabled when the IDE interrupt must be shared with another device. For example, a PS/2 9577 computer with IDE could share interrupt 14 with the IBM SCSI Adapter /A. Using Micro[...]
