DIAGNOSTICS
When different peripheral devices use the same hardware resources at the same time, the
devices and/or the system may not function properly. You can resolve hardware conflicts by
ensuring that no devices are configured to use the same hardware resources. These
resources can either be dipswitch or jumper settings on the peripheral card or software
configurable resources. The Computer Setup selection of your Compaq Utilities allows you
to view and modify the settings for the peripheral devices factory installed in your
computer. Refer to the User's Guide for the particular peripheral cards you wish to install
for information on how to view and select their settings.
To resolve hardware conflicts:

the source of the problem by temporarily removing all cards not
manufactured by Compaq, or resetting the default settings and running
Compaq Utilities. After that, add the cards back one at a time until the
card that is causing the conflict is found.
