Resolving Resource Conflicts

Note:

You require your Sprint PCS Connection Card installation CD to

complete this procedure.

TheSprint PCS Connection Card requires these system resources:

1 IRQ

32 bytes of I/O space

1 available communications ports

If these resources are notavailable to the card, 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 device. 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.
