Having looked through my bios setup I am aware that for a lot of things I do not know what would be the optimum setup. E.g. would it help to have the irq's of the cards fix. Or the advice to not let the PNP setup be done automatically would force me to do it manual or? Does somebody know of a site with the best bios setup? Or does Suse somewhere has help on this topic? A search in Google did not give me anything useful. My system is fairly new, a Pentium II with 400 mHz, and a mix of ISa and PCI cards on it. As I am sorting out an io address overlap I want to optimize my bios if that seems necessary. If this would be OT, I am happy to discuss the possibilities off list ;-) -- " Every little BYTE helps " NTReader v0.35w(P)/Beta (Registered) in conjunction with Net-Tamer.
