BanditXL 0 Posted March 25, 2001 First off I'm new to this forum and I hoop to be an addition to it. Now here's my qeustion, I have a soundblaster live 1024, geforce 2 MX, e-tech cxt1034-hfc modem and realtek rtl8029(as) PCI ethernet adapter. When I look in the sytem configuration, all of them are ussing the same IRQ (11 for the record) and I can't change it. I'm logged on as administrator am using a AMD 1200 MHZ on a MSI k7t pro2a. I appreciate any help. Share this post Link to post
Xiven 0 Posted March 25, 2001 Unless it's causing you problems - leave it alone. It's like that cause win2k by default uses ACPI. With ACPI, as well as getting better power management features (such as being able to shutdown your machine by pressing the power button), you shouldn't have to worry about IRQs ever again. In theory. People have been experiencing problems with ACPI (especially with older hardware), so if you are actually having probs with it, search these boards for how to disable ACPI. -- Xiven Share this post Link to post
BanditXL 0 Posted March 25, 2001 Thanx I didn't know that. But I thought that would be the problem, because after I'm online for a while my computer hangs. I have been able to swap some IRQ's for the interested people by swapping some cards in the system. Sofar after I swapped the cards it hasn't hanged yet(*keeping his fingers crossed*).
