XPerties Posted November 17, 2001 Share Posted November 17, 2001 You shouldnt assing one for your card. It will probaby take IRQ 11 (thats the main universal IRQ). You should just let windows sort them out. I wouldnt assing anything.-Xperties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drewdatrip Posted November 19, 2001 Share Posted November 19, 2001 Hey Gwar...what was the purpose behind assigning your vid card its own irq?...im just curious-drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPerties Posted November 19, 2001 Share Posted November 19, 2001 [b:11a3c56851]drewdatrip[/b:11a3c56851] - you should never have your Vid card sharing a IRQ, So he probaly wanted to make sure XP was going to do this, By assigning the IRQ it prevents this. Of course you should only assign if your IRQ's are messed up, never do it from the begaining.-XPerties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XPerties Posted November 20, 2001 Share Posted November 20, 2001 Your video card wont but your OS will, BUT some people have conflicts and sometimes the only way to get ride of those conflicts is buy setting it.-Xperties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aMb Posted November 21, 2001 Share Posted November 21, 2001 Windows 2000/XP gives everything the same IRQ and then sorts it out somehow, and I'm not too certain on how, and why, as I haven’t had to check for the reasoning behind it ... I think it would be on MSDN though.aMb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
