Manual settings for IRQ"s

[Todd A]

Checking my system information I see several devices
loaded on IRQ's 21,22, & 23. I notice that my ieee 1394
network host adaptor keeps changing number of instances
it appears (in the registery?), and general problems with
system crashes and random restarts. Asus tells me to take
all my hardware out of the case & reassemble it on a
boxtop to see if I continue getting random restarts. (I
question if a grounding/short is really what causes the
problem.) I'm using Asus P4T533-C, Abit Siluro GF4
Ti4200, 3ware Escalade 7000 RAID Controller, 1GB RD Ram
Kinston PC non-ecc 1066, Canopus DV Storm 2. What could
be the problem? Oh, I also can't shut down Windows XP Pro
after launching Adobe Premiere 6.5.

Todd, don't know what your problem is but IRQ sharing is normal with XP.
It's not unusual to see five devices all sharing one IRQ. Try removing all
but the video card and checking things - add one card at a time to see if
you can isolate the source of the problem.
