One of the quickest ways to change the resources assigned to a PCI card like the
Delta 410 is to merely relocate the card to another PCI slot. Before doing so, it
is a good idea to locate the device in the Device Manager, highlight it, and click
“Remove” (in 95/98) or select “Uninstall” from the Actions menu (in Win 2000).
With the computer’s power off, remove the Delta 410 from its current PCI slot,
move it to another available PCI slot, and turn your computer back on. More
often than not, this will change the IRQ assignment of the Delta 410 when you
re-enter Windows. After returning to Windows, follow the steps outlined in the
"Verifying Windows Driver Installation" section of this manual. It might take
more than one PCI slot relocation to find an open IRQ.

If relocating your card to another PCI slot does not cure the Delta 410’s
conflict(s), then you must do some further investigation to determine the exact
nature of the conflict(s). Again, go to the Windows Device Manager, highlight
the Delta 410 or other devices with conflicts and click the "Properties" button at
the bottom of the Device Manager window. This will open the properties page
for that device. Select the "Resources tab" in order to view the resource
assignments, plus possible conflicts. You may learn more about a conflict by
highlighting each item one-by-one (done by clicking on them, or scrolling
through the list using your keyboard cursor keys) and examining the "Conflicting
resource list:" at the bottom of the box.
