UNSOLVED
IRQ Overload?
Greetings;
I have an XPS Gen 3 with:
250GB HD, 1GB RAM
nVidia 6800GTO with 256MB
m993s CRT
Audigy Sound
Network & modem cards (linked to Dim. 8200 via Netgear)
CD&DVD Burners
WinXP Pro
I've had it for just over a year and am very pleased with it!
After doing some ‘house cleaning’ to get the best gaming performance from my machine, I reviewed the “System Summary” looking for possible conflicts and overuse of “Hardware Resources” and possible “Problem Devices”. Two areas have caused me concern:
- After reviewing this information, the “Conflicts/Sharing” information, I’ve noticed that IRQ 16 seems to be very busy. Is this normal for my PC’s configuration or should a change be made?
- Secondly: In the “Problem Devices” category there is a notation regarding a graphics controller? Again I ask is this a problem needing correction?
