Keef,

All on IRQ9 was a fluke, and that it worked, even more of a fluke.

When you have as many PCI cards as you do, you need to remove just about all the PCI Cards before the install of WinXP. Once WinXP is installed, and all the drivers for the Motherboard, Video Card, and Sound Card are loaded. Then you start by adding the rest of the cards one at a time and loading the Drivers for them.

That is the best way to install WinXP on a Legacy System.

Question: When you go Start >> Turn Off Computer >> Turn Off Does the computer turn off on its own, or do you need to switch the power off manually? (If it shuts down on its own, you computer is running ACPI Compliant and you can go to the Power Settings under the Screen Saver Screen and Setup your timers for turning off your hardware.)

From Microsoft:

To create a new power scheme
  1. Open Power Options in Control Panel.
  2. In the Turn off monitor, Turn off hard disks, System standby, and System hibernates lists on the Power Schemes tab, select the time settings you want.
  3. Under Power Schemes, click Save As, and then type a name for the power scheme. The new scheme is added to the Power Schemes list.


Note
  • To open Power Options, click Start, click Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click Power Options.
  • To delete a power scheme, select it, and then click Delete.
  • Using Power Options in Control Panel, you can adjust any power management option that your computer's unique hardware configuration supports. Because these options may vary widely from computer to computer, the options described may differ from what you see. Power Options automatically detects what is available on your computer and shows you only the options that you can control.

Here are some of the drivers you need for you hardware:

VIA Hyperion 4in1 Drivers

ATI Windows XP Display Driver

Sound Blaster Live! Value (If that does not work, you can access it from here Sound Blaster Live! DriverPack)

LSI Logic 53C810 SCSI 2 Drivers

Advansys SCSI Host Adapter Drivers

Take Care,

Richard

P.S. Please list your new IRQs.
