HOW do you resolve a resource conflict?
My Programmable Interupt controller is listed as having a resource conflict with the Mitsumi cdrom controller. What do I do?
WInME..
Boot into Safe Mode, go to Device manager, remove the conflicting device, and any "ghost" devices. Reboot and let Windows reinstall it.

Thanks! That did it.
How do you know if something's a ghost device? :confused: Still learning.

Generally if you have more than one of a device listed in Device Manager and you only actually have one device, it is a ghost device you have removed the device, but still find the drivers, that would also be a ghost. Sometimes you accidently install more than one driver, sometimes you forget to remove the driver when you remove the device and sometimes computer poltergeist haunt your computer...:eek: :eek: :D
