IRQ PRobs with 8k7a

[luderob]

Hi, I just finished building my computer but now im left with a wierd problem. It seems like my SCSI card, Network card, and soud card are all using IRQ 11. I don't know if this will cause any problems but im sure it will in the future. I want to know if there is a way to make them use their own IRQs. Back in my abit bh6, it was really easy to get them to all use their own irq. Since this is my first athlon system, i have no clue. My PCI slots are loaded as follows :
AGP: TNT2
PCI1: Empty
PCI2: SCSI card for CDRW
PCI3: SB LIvE
PCI4: Linksys Network card
PCI5: EMPTY
PCI6: EMPTY

Oh yeah, btw, I'm running win 98se. Thanks.

Win98 allows you to allocate devices to their own IRQs.

If you have no IRQs left, you should disable the COM ports to free up at least 1 or 2 IRQs.

For the SBLive, go to the Creative SB16 Emulation device and make sure that you check Allow LPT Interrupt Sharing.
