Resolving Resource Conflicts

Note: You must have your Sprint Mobile Broadband Express Card
installation CD to complete this procedure.
The Sprint Mobile Broadband Express Card requires these
system resources:
1 IRQ.
4096 bytes of I/O space.
2 available communications ports (one modem, one
serial).
If these resources are not available to your card, you have a
resource conflict. If another card device is installed, you may
be able to free the necessary resources simply by ejecting the
other device. Otherwise, you may need to disable another
device (such as an internal modem, infrared device, or
network device) to resolve the resource conflict. This section
explains how to disable other devices.
