- Greetings,
-
- Question:
-
- Does the Diamond Stealth S3 Vision 964 chip (2 meg, PCI) conflict with an
- internal modem at Com 4, Irq 3? The card was purchased in 8/94.
-
- Some people have said that I am crazy, but I remember reading that they
- conflict because something in the Stealth card with the S3 Vision 964
- chip uses Com 4, or Irq 3.
-
- Do they conflict??
-
- I had to remove my modem and install it in my other system so that I
- could use the modem.
-
- I'm considering getting another video card for my system with the modem
- and I don't want to buy a card that won't work with my modem.
-
- I know that it *should not* conflict but others have had this same
- problem and I was advised in an InterLink Hardware conference when I
- first installed the modem that the S3 chip was a problem with Com4 and/or
- Irq 3.
-
- I know it sounds crazy, but I remember being told about the conflict.
-
- Any help would be appreciated.
-
- Thanks,
