Windows NT - Interupt sharing - PCI-EXPRESS

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I have a problem with Windows NT 4.0 SP6.

Is there any way to change the interrupts (registry???).

 

On my new Asus P5GD2 installation of NT4 was impossible.

(but I could manage it ...see below if interested)

 

All devices (VGA, VideoCaptureCard, LAN) want to use IRQ 10!

This is silly cause IRQ 9,11,12 is free!!!!

(according NT-Diagnostics)

 

I cannot change IRQ-Settings in BIOS (only to "reserved")

and then it won't boot at all....

 

-LAN is onboard

-PCI-Express Slot0: : NVDIA GFORCE6600

-PCI Slot1: -

-PCI Slot2: VideoCaptureCard

-PCI Slot3: -

-PCIE Slot1: -

-PCIE Slot2: -

 

 

Any idea how to solve?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trickey Workaround for NT4 install

************************************

1. Install NT4 with very basic options to an old PC

2. Install all drivers needed for the new PC (of course they will not work;-)

3. Just put the Harddisk in the new PC and boot

 

OR what I did

- New Partition on the new PC (Dual Boot)

- Add the Entry in boot.ini

under [operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT="Mircosoft Windows NT Workstation 4.0"

- Copy via NFS/SMB Share the whole Disk from the oldPC to the new Partition....(you should start that old system with knoppix or similar...)

 

*WOW* that works and tricked the NT4-Crash-Installer....
