Overcoming Resource Conflict

Resource in finite systems. Unfortunately, pcnnintaan against resourcs seemingly infinite. If you add more and more of an adapter card into your system, then the resource will increase the possibility konfiik: If your system is fully PnP-compatible, konfiik may be solved immediately, but often not.

How do you know if you have a resource konfiik? Typically, one of the tools in your system stops working. However konfiik resource can show itself in other ways. The following events can be diagnosed as konfiik resource :

• A means of transferring data inaccurately
• Your system is often locked.
• Sound card can not read properly.
• Your mouse does not work.
• Garbage appears on the video screen
• You no apparent reason.
• Your printer prints in chaotic
• You can not format a floppy disk.
• PCs start in Safe mode (Windows 9x). 

Windows 9x/Me and Windows 2000/XP also show highlights a conflict with a device with a yellow or red color in the Windows Device Manager. By using the Windows Device Manager, you can usually recognize the conflict quickly.

In the following sections, you learn a few steps that you can do to prevent resource conflicts or to trace lersebut when conflict occurs.

Note:
Be careful when diagnosing resource conflicts; a problem may not be the same sokali resource conflicts, but a computer virus. Many computer viruses are designed to show themselves as a matter of temporary or periodic. If you guessed the problem that there are resource conflicts, then it would be better if you rnenjalankan virus checks in advance to ensure that the system is clean torsebut. This procedure can save you hours of work and reduce your frustration.

One way to solve conflicts is to prevent it in the first moment. Especially if you're building a new system, you can do Ixtlierapa steps to avoid problems. One way is to nienghindari use the old ISA devices. Intrinsically, these tools can lidak IRQ sharing, and most in need of resources. PCI card (and A (iP) can share an IRQ with IRQ Steering, and thus merupa a better choice.

Another way you can do is to install a card with a specific sequence, and not all at once. Modifying the order of Inslulasi often help as many cards can only use one or two of the tela IRQ set specific to each brand ii.ui card model. With mengir tal card in a controlled sequence, then upllware plug-and-play can work more easily with the IRQ conflict iliscbabkan by the default configuration of the different cards.

The first time you attempt to start up a new system that you have your raft or upgrade, which has to be the first thing you check is the BIOS Setup. If you have a PnP Operating System settings in your BIOS, make sure the setting is enabled when you run an operating system with support for plug-and-play, eg Windows 9x/Me/2000. If not, make sure these settings to be disabled if you are running an OS that is not plug-and-play such as Windows NT.

At the initial startup I recommend a minimum configuration with only kaitu graphics, memory, and storage drives (floppy, hard disk, CD-ROMs, and DVDs). This gives the lowest likelihood of conflict in the initial configuration of the system. If your motherboard comes with a CD that contains drivers that were specific to the chipset or feature built-in another board, then now's the time to load or rnenginstalnya.Complete configuration of all devices before installing a built-in card or other external devices.

Once the basic system is configured (and after you successfully load and update your operating system or other extras), you can then start adding one device at a time in a specific order. So, you turn off the power, install new equipment, rnenghidupkan power, and ine-continue to install any required drivers and configure the tool. You may have to restart your system after you finish fully complete the configuration.

Warning :

I sometimes suggest that when you're installing your appliance, go to Device Manager in Windows and print settings as the resource-ration gurasinya time. In this way, you will have a record of how the peru-materials and configurations during the process insialasi seiuruh configuration tools.

Here are uri'tan loading for an additional card :

1. Sound card
2. Internal or external modem
3. Cardjaringan
4. Video tools, such as MPEG decoder, 3D accelerators, and so forth
5. SCSI Adapter
6. Other tools

Diasanya, by using a sequence of control in the configuration or construction of the system, then the integration will be easier, and conflict and chaos configuration becomes less.
