I have an old Pen 133 thats running 98 second edition. While the machine is booting up and just before the ram count,I get a "Static Resource Conflict" and then it moves on and finishes booting the system. I have done everything from stripping it down to just the video card,ram and processor. I have changed ram and ram types . There are no "bangs" in device manager and everything in Computer Properties shows "no" problems.
Would anyone out there have a clue?

Check BIOS settings for 2 things:

1 is a port or slot sharing an IRQ or address.

The second, is to set the configuration update switch to yes.

In most BIOSes, the configuration switch (ESCD) resets to disabled after each boot.

You shouldenable the switch whenever you add or change hardware.

If all else fails, try setting the Plug-n-Play OS switch to disable.
