devices using the same irq

valiant
Every time I start up win2000 it assign my irq 10 to five different devices (two video-adapters, a soundcard, a tv-card, a network-adapter). It says there are no conflicts but when I try to play any sound or use the network adapter, win2000 stops responding.

JN6 is listed as not being compatible with W2K and I was wondering who to contact about information regarding any future plans to make it compatible. Is it up to the developer of the game or MS? Would really like to get this game running with 2K.

Important - BP6 owners READ!

FrogMaster
It seems that some batches of BP6 motherboards have a defective VTT voltage regulator which causes random lock-ups. You may want to have a look at for the full story, the serial numbers involved and a possible fix.
