IRQ Conflict/Sharing: See a problem?

by kimba1031 . Updated 24 years, 2 months ago

When looking at my system resources hardware conflicts/sharing I see the following:

IRQ 5 CMD USB Open Host Controller
IRQ 5 IRQ Holder for PCI Steering
IRQ 9 VIA Tech 3038 PCI to USB Universal Host Controller
IRQ 9 VIA Tech 3038 PCI to USB Universal Host Controller
IRQ 9 IRQ Holder for PCI Steering
IRQ 10 Creative Sound Blaster PCI128
IRQ 10 IRQ Holder for PCI Steering
IRQ 11 CNET PRO200 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter
IRQ 11 IRQ Holder for PCI Steering
IRQ 14 Primary IDE controller (dual fifo)
IRQ 14 VIA Bus Master PCI IDE Controller
IRQ 15 Secondary IDE controller (dual fifo)
IRQ 15 VIA Bus Master PCI IDE Controller

Does this look like it could be a problem? I am experiencing freezes, and system resource drops(sometimes down as low as 4%). I am running Win98, 256MBRAM lots of free space, Nothing extra in startup, and get quicker resource drops when running MSAccess. Looking to gain understanding on possible reasons for these issues. Any suggestions?
