If you are getting an IRQ conflict after installing a new HW/SW you can see whats wrong by seeing IRQ settings of all the installed devices in the machine. To view your current IRQ (Interrupt Request) assignments in a Windows XP machine you can open Device Manager. Click on Start, click on Control Panel. -> System -> Hardware tab -> Device Manager button -> In Device Manager, select View from the toolbar and then click Resources by Type. Clicking on the Interrupt Request (IRQ) you can find IRQ settings for various devices in the computer. If you see a conflict. You can right click on that device and go to Properties. Under Resources tab you can see the IRQ settings among other properties. Here for a conflicting device you can deselect the Use Automatic Settings option. After this you can select a non-conflicting configuration from the pull down box and save by pressing OK. For some system devices the operating system may not allow you to change the settings.
