Re: Linking Problems



Hi, I just wanted to say sorry, I didn't mean to "snap back at your
post". I just wanted to inform people that there was another possible
solution (one that is a lot less trouble, if you ask me)

It's easy to change your IRQ settings: In win95: go to the control
panel, double click on "System", device manager, ports. Choose a port,
go to the "Resources" tab, remove the check next to "Use automatic
settings". Then you can change the IRQs (and addresses). Seems pretty
simple to toy around with and it's indicated at the bottom wether or
not you have conflicts. I got all this from a friend, so I'd be
gratefull if someone else could confirm that it really is that simple,
anyone?
