Been setting up my new system this weekend and I am having some problems with IRQ assignments. Everything is fine and all parts are on thier own IRQ according to system information until I put in my PCI 6 PORT USB card, which then decides to share 3 different IRQ's, namely the GFX card, the Soundcard and the modem, I am not happy with this at all [Frown] IRQ's 2 - 7 are unassigned.
Now my technique has been to install windows (XP PRO) with the absolute minimum hardware attached and then add in components one at a time as I am under the impression this is the best way of installing, am I wrong?
Or on the other hand does it really matter that they are sharing under XP?, I have read a great deal on the net that leads me to believe I may be worrying for nothing.
Any comments?
thanks,
Dano.
