| This has nothing to do with interupts; as the error message *clearly*
| states, the problem is I/O ports. If you can change the "PnP OS" option

| BIOS isn't setting up the PCI device.
Thanks, Mike. That is normally the first thing I do with a new laptop
installation. My surprise was that this BIOS almost doesn't let you
change anything and PnP isn't even mentioned.:-(

| If you can't turn the "PnP OS" option off, you're stuck until we finish
| PCI resource assignment in 5.x.
Sounds like that is the only option that I have.
Thanks, Mike.
