Out of IRQ’s

by telle . Updated 25 years, 5 months ago

Running a Gigabyte GA-BX2000+,Pent.III 600,256 M.B. Ram,Plextor 12/10/32A,Creative DVD and S.B Live Value,Internal 100M.B. Zip Drive,VooDoo5 5500, USB Visioneer Scanner,H.P.2000C Printer,and Linsys Networking Card. I am out of IRQ’s running Win 98. The Device manager says I would have to disable something else to run the camera I am trying to hook up.Can I gain any IRQ’s in any way or share more of them by rearranging them ?The S.B. Sound card is also taking one up for S.B. Emulation 16 (Don’t even know what it is). What about adapters to change over the mouse keyboard and printer to USB ?Doe’s USB only use 1 IRQ ? Or how about hardware like the Targus USB Mobile Expansion Hub ? Will it free up the IRQ’s ? I bought this new M.B. to upgradeto do all this but did not figure on IRQ problems. Been reading alot on them and still don’t know what to do. Please help ! Thanx in advance. Tim
