Resolving Hardware Conflicts

This section describes the possible hardware conflicts between your

SE1440 and other adapter cards in your system, and ways of resolving

these conflicts.

Hardware conflicts occur when two or more devices use the same I/O

address, IRQ, or DMA channel. The default settings of the SE1440 are as

follows:

Sound Blaster Mode

DMA = 1

IO Address = 220H

IRQ = 5

These settings might come into conflict with other devices, such as

scanners, printers, or a SCSI hard disk drive, for example.

To resolve hardware conflicts:

1. Find out the current board setting (DMA channel, IRQ, I/O port

address) of the SE1440 by running “CSACDIA1”, from the C:\SE1440

directory (or other directory where you installed the SE1440 drivers).

2. If you know of any peripheral card in your system that is using the

same setting, change the hardware setting on the peripheral card or the

SE1440.
