ChangingIRQ



If you need to change IRQ you can do so by looking at the IRQ which the modem 
is on currently.  (eg.6 will be used for our purposes). 

Uninstall the modem
Right click My computer and go to properties

Go to the Device manager tab and then double click on Computer

Click on the Interrupt request (IRQ) circle

Click on the Reserve Resources tab

Click on the Add button

Click up until you see the IRQ you will reserved (not to be used in this case 6.)

Click ok. Uninstall the modem and reboot.

Set your bios PNP/PCI Configuration  PNP OS to off.

Save and exit and load into windows.  It should reinstall the modem bypassing the IRQ you reserved. 

If it still doesn’t install in the IRQ you want keep on reserving them until it does.  Once you have it on the right IRQ you can unreserve the irq you reserved by going to the reserve menu and clicking remove
