- I can't find the documentation, but I did have a Diamond Stealth manual that
- listed the I/O ports used by the card. I distinctly remember that 02E8h was
- one of those ports. So yes, there's a conflict. No IRQ problem, though.
- Most video cards either don't use an IRQ, or use 2d / 9d. (I think the
- Stealth had a jumper to enable or disable IRQ 2.)
