Resolving Conflicts in
Windows 95/98/98 SE/
Me
If you are unsure of which
peripheral device is causing the
conflict, you can isolate the
source of the problem by
temporarily removing all devices
(except your modem and
essential devices such as the disk
controller). After that, add the
devices back one at a time until
the device that is causing the
conflict is found.
Hardware conflicts may occur when two or more peripheral devices are set to use the same I/O
address, IRQ line or DMA channel.
To resolve conflicts in Windows 95/98/98 SE/Me, change the resource settings of your modem
or the conflicting peripheral device using Device Manager.
To run Device Manager:
1. Right-click the My Computer icon on your Windows 95/98/98 SE/Me desktop.
2. Click Properties from the pull-down menu.
The System Properties dialog box appears.
3. Click the Device Manager tab.
A list of system devices is displayed.
4. Double-click Modem.
5. Select your modem and click the Properties button.
The Properties dialog box of the modem appears.
6. Click the Resources tab.
7. Click the Use Automatic Settings check box to select it.
If this check box is already selected, you need to go to the Properties dialog box of the
conflicting peripheral device and select the same check box there.
8. Restart your system to allow Windows 95/98/98 SE/Me to reassign resources to your modem
and/or the conflicting peripheral device.
