Resource conflict
Greetings.
On an E-Machine 192MB RAM, 566Mhz, I am getting a conflict in resource error just before it boots up the OS (Win98). I took out the modem card (PCI slot 2) and the conflict is gone. I place it in slot 3 and the error returns now showing slot 3 has the error. Is this a bad card now or do I need to set the configuration manually? If I do, then how do I find out what to set it at? Thank you for any help you can give! B.rgds, Kevin |

More likely than not the problem is simply that the modem you're adding is
trying to take over an existing serial port on your motherboard. Go into your computer's BIOS setup and disable any internal COM ports you are not using. Your system manual or EMachine website should have more information on this. -- Richard G. Harper [MVP Shell/User] * PLEASE post all messages and replies in the newsgroups * for the benefit of all.
