Hi my computer has an IRO problem. on IRQ 11 there are four devices. they are: SiS 7001 PCI to USB Open Host Controller, 56k Modem, C-Media AC97 Audio Device, and the SiS 900 PCI Fast Ethernet Adapter. The manufacturer of the motherboard is Elitegroup Computer Systems model number K7SOM. i would really appreciate it if some could help me out. Thanks bye.

Is the IRQ sharing causing problems? If not, it is best to leave well alone, PnP is there for a reason and if you are not careful you will end up having to reinstall Windows. I have three devices sharing an IRQ, my soundcard, my network card and my firewire controller. This doesn't cause any problems. If you really want to change the settings go into the BIOS and set them there, but be warned, its not a good idea!
