Newbie needs irq help

mmurch01 · 11-01-2004, 10:08 AM

My soundcard and floppy drive are conflicting on irq6. Is there a way to change which irq either one uses?

I looked in BIOS to see if there was a way to change it there, but there wasn't...

Try adding "pci=biosirq" to the proper Lilo entry. It worked for a sound card irq conflict I had.

Can you instruct me on how to do that? I use GRUB bootloader, does that matter? Can you tell that I don't know jack about this???

Oh the humanity!!!
