cannot find enough free resources

Question

Hej
I have a Old Dell Inspiron 8100, no LAN card to start with. I want to installe a Zonet Ralink RT2500 wireless LAN Card. When installed this message keeps comming up In Devica manageren: This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)

If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system.

Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device.

Troubleshoot dosnt help at all. tryed it all. In xp you cant change IRQ

I am logged inn as an administrator.
Anyone have a surgestion?

Thanks Trxtar

Here is a Microsoft tech article on this.  http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/reskit/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/reskit/en-us/prjk_dec_lgsc.asp   Ultimately, you may have to uninstall a device.  If you are going to use the LAN exclusively and not using dial-up, you can uninstall and remove the modem and see if that resolves the problem.
