Determining Available Resources

Your U.S. Robotics

modem is a Plug and Play device. Windows

95

can automatically identify a Plug and Play device and determine if your
system has the resources necessary to support the device. However,
Plug and Play will not work if you do not have resources available or if
devices on your system are not reporting resource usage correctly. Here
is how you can verify that your system has the necessary resources
before installing the modem.

1. Click the Windows 95 Start button, point to Settings, and then click

Control Panel.

2. Double-click the System icon.

3. When the “System Properties” screen appears, click the Device

Manager tab.

4. Double-click Computer and the “Computer Properties” screen

appears.

5. Select the option at the top of the screen to show Interrupt Requests

(IRQs).
