System resource specifications You can use Device Manager to get a graphical view of the system resources that control how the devices work on the computer. System resources you can access from Device Manager are direct memory access (DMA) channels, input/output (I/O) ports, interrupt request (IRQ) lines, and memory addresses. If two devices require the same resource and create a device conflict, you can manually change the resource settings in Device Manager to be sure each setting is unique. CAUTION: Improperly changing resource settings can disable your hardware and cause your computer to malfunction or become inoperable. Only users who have expert knowledge of computer hardware and hardware configurations should change resource settings. To view resource settings in Windows 7: 1. Select Start > Computer. 2.
