It would depend on your IRQ's and how they are assigned now and what is left. It may be less work if you left it with 5 and 6.

Hi David,<BR>your probally right..<P>I would like the extra com ports one day though..<P>My extra LPT ports cause my floppy to freeze up as well, I take it that this is the same problem ??<P>Where can I see a list of IRQ's, in the BIOS ?<P>are they a defined number or can I create new ones ?<P>cheers Farnk.
