USB PCI card messing up its neighbors??
Hello - i have just installed a new USB 2.0 PCI adapter and since then
have had terrible video performance.. The USB works fine, and the video is OK but when I ask more demanding things of the card (eg play a video) it is slow and choppy. It used to play perfectly.. In addition, web pages rather than appearing on screen, "swoosh" onto the screen from top to bottom like someone had a paint roller pasting it onto my monitor... I have looked in the hardware profile and noticed that the USB, Display, Sound and NIC are all on IRQ 9 - could this be a problem? I am growing quite annoyed... could anyone offer a suggestion? Thanks! Pat

Thanks! Pat Ideally,you want video and sound to have thier own IRQ's. You can move the cards to different slots if you need to. Usually,the AGP or PCIe16 will share with the PCI#1slot next to it.Then, PCI 2 and 4(if you have that many) share an IRQ. BTW,things may have changed with PCIe.It may get it own irq.Can't find the info.

USB PCI card messing up its neighbors??
Yes, having all those devices on the same interrupt is causing a conflict.

USB PCI card messing up its neighbors??
I have tried changing the PCI slot and it doesn't help, but removing
the card immediately brought the computer to its normal behaviour... btw when i say they are on the same IRQ i mean from XP's pov... on irq 9... the bios sees it on on its own independant one.. or close to it at least DaveW wrote: Yes, having all those devices on the same interrupt is causing a conflict. -- DaveW ---------------- wrote in message oups.com...
