Resolving Resource Conflicts
Note: You require your AirCard
installation CD to complete this
procedure. The AirCard requires these system resources:
• 1 IRQ
• 40 bytes of I/O space
• 1 communications port
If these resources are not available to the AirCard, you have a
resource conflict. If another PC card is installed, you may be
able to free the necessary resources simply by ejecting the
other card. Otherwise, you may need to disable another device
(such as an internal modem, infrared device, or network card)
to resolve the resource conflict. This section explains how to
disable other devices.
