Devices within the computer may require dedicated memory spaces, interrupt levels, or DMA channels, all of which must be allocated during installation of the devices. Because devices may be installed at different times, it is possible that the same resource is assigned to two or more devices. Resource conflicts can result in disorderly or erratic computer operation or failure of the computer to operate at all. If you suspect that resource conflicts might exist, check the computer and reassign the resources as necessary. For more information about resolving conflicts, see Chapter 3, "Troubleshooting Your Computer," in the Reference and Troubleshooting Guide. If none of the procedures in this chapter reveals the source of the problem or leads to the proper troubleshooting steps for determining the source of the problem, call Dell for technical assistance. For instructions, see Chapter 5, "Getting Help," in the Reference and Troubleshooting Guide. 2-6 Dell Latitude CP and CPi Service Manual
