I have a problem or should say had a problem I tried to change to standard pc through
device manager. using the update driver section when I rebooted it prompted me to
reinstall winxp i selected the repair option and it did it's thing, it reinstalled
the ACPI configuration I thought oh @#%& but everything seems to work fine now and
yes my video card, ethernet card and sound card all share the same irq
I'm wondering if this is more a corrupted file issue rather than a conflict with
irq's? Just a thought!
