    Exclamation IRQ's in Win2k

    I've recently been trying to troubleshpoot some random crashes in win2k...
    I just found out that my Gefore2GTS, Ethernet Card, SB live card, win2k promise ultra100 controller, and some USB host controllers are all on IRQ 9. Is that a problem? and if so how do I change IRQ's? I found this information in my admin tools->system info->hardware res->conflicts

    Thanks!

    Give this a try:

    Go into device manage and click the + in front of Computer. It should say ACPI PC, now click on properties go to the driver tab and click update driver. Click next then select display a list... then click next. Click on show all hardware and on the right side scroll down and select standard PC and hit ok till you get out and ask to reboot. When you reboot win2k is going to redetect all the hardware and they should now be on seperate IRQ's (unless the PCI slots they are in share IRQ's).

    NOTE: Now when you shut down, the computer will stop at "It is now..." and you will have to turn it of manually.
