In the Device manager there is an explantion mark in system, Advanced power management support. I tried updating the driver and reinstalling it, it won't work. I keep getting WAOL and threw off computer. There is a conflict. How can I fix this?

By re-installing the driver, are you refering to the chipset driver for the motherboard?

Also, check in BIOS settings that APM is enabled.

I'd go into the BIOS and disable any power management features. Let Windoze manage it.

The WAOL is our good friend Windows America On Line. Remove AOL and reinstall it. Do not load 7.0 unless you are runing XP.

Removed Advanced Power Management and reboot.

Turn Power Management off in BIOS

See if you can change resources under Device Manager.

Good Luck.

Jim
