Instead I suspect that the default IRQ that the card sets it= self > to is something really stupid like IRQ 3.=20 So the card would reset itself to irq 3 (or more likely irq 0 or some impossible value) each power cycle? And that the OS/BIOS is supposed to reconfigure it? Actually, if the card would reset itself to irq 3, I would have made it work, since I tried all freakin irqs from 3 to 15. :) > The card obviously is pure plug and > play and when Windows PnP manager loads it reprograms the IRQ to whatever= is > open.=20 Actually, this is something kinda weird. The card is not plug and play, from what I can tell. At least, windows doesn't detect is as PnP, and pnpinfo doesn't show up anything at all... Also, I had trouble configuring the card in windows too. I had to set it manually to some free irq around (using windows config tools) and reboot *2 times* in order to have it work at all. And whene I changed it, windows told me it had to *shutdown* (not reboot) for me to change the *jumpers* (which are nonexistent) of the card to follow the changes. Also, there's a "detected setting" in windows that tells me that only the *port* is detected setting. The irq seems to be "guessed". > But for whatever reason your system's BIOS is not programming the card. Ok, that's valuable information.=20 > Some BIOS's have a setting: PnP OS NO/YES you should set yours to NO and = see > what happens.=20 I think I'm already there. PnP OS set to no here. > Also, get that utility I was mentioning and run it under DOS and see what= it says. Where?
