Hello,
After having trouble with my TV card, I contacted technical support, who asked me to check a few things. Looking in Device Manager, I noticed I have no less than six devices:- Graphics card, sound card, network card, secondary IDE controller, USB controller and the TV tuner, all on IRQ 9!
Tech support suggested I engage in a spot of musical chairs with my cards, particularly considering the bus-hogging prowess of the 3Com network card and the SB Live!. What I'm wondering is that since I left IRQ assignments up to Windows 2000, perhaps I should get the more sensible BIOS to sort it out instead (Turn Plug 'n' Play OS off)?
