In case of an address conflict, try to modify the I/O address of the add-on card that causes the conflict. Resolving Interrupt Conflicts To support the special graphics processor on the Fire GL4 the system BIOS should automatically assign a system interrupt to the AGP slot where the card is installed. However, there may be problems if your graphics card does not receive an interrupt or a system interrupt is used for more than one device. [. . . ]
