McAffee'a performance optimizer gives me the following message -
"The ACPI IRQ holder for PCI IRQ Steering Device has a problem"
There is no indication of what the problem is or how to go about fixing it. Any suggestions?

Open up System Information in Windows ME:
Go to start>>programs>>accessories>>system information.
...or Start>>run>>msinfo32.

Open the Problem Devices Folder.

My guess is, you have ACPI IRQ holder for PCI IRQ Steering listed there with Error Code 22 on it.

It is *not* a problem. Repeat... *not* a problem. In general it just means that you have free IRQ's that are not being used.

See for reference:
"ACPI IRQ Holder for PCI IRQ Steering" Problem Device Entry in System Information Tool

If you have any other Error Code on them, post your system specs and BIOS date.

I get the same Error Code 22. The problem I have is that the device veto's any command to put the system into standby or hibernate. Any idea how to over come this?
