TROUBLESHOOTING HOW TO FREE AN IRQ What to do if you don't have an available IRQ If there is not an available (open) IRQs on your system, you can do the following. The first thing you can do is let your Motherboard and Windows do the work for you. For this option you will need to check that you have a Plug and Play compatible Motherboard and set it to reset the configuration. Note: All of the setting names below may not be the exact wording on your system. This is due to the great number of Motherboard and hardware manufacturers. The settings may be listed on your system using different words that mean the same thing. Refer to your motherboard's manual or contact the manufacturer if you are unsure. Perform the following steps to check for a Plug and Play Motherboard and to reset the configuration. 1. Reboot your computer. 2. When your computer is going through its POST (Power On Self Test) enter into your BIOS(Basic Input/Output System). 3. Some BIOS's have a setting that will let you enable the Motherboard for Plug and Play. You should look for a setting that says "Plug and Play OS." "Enable" this function. 4. The second setting to look for is under the heading "PNP/PCI Configuration." Under this heading check to make sure that "Resources Controlled By" is set to "Auto." 33
