*Please help* Moving IRQ

[Guest]

Someone, please help me. I've been on tech support all day. I am trying to
play World of Warcraft on my Windows XP Alienware computer, and I've talked
to them about it and adding -opengl and -nosound does not work, it doens't
restart anymore but I still get no sound. Here's the link if you want to
take a look-

Ok, anyways after being on the phone for HOURS they've concluded that "the
sound card is on the same adress and another piece of hardware and can the
IRQ be moved"

Just another piece of information is that I hear a slight buzzing sound in
my Zalman Theatre 6 Headphones.

Any help woudl be GREATLY appreciated.

thanks so much,

The easiest way to change the IRQ is to move the sound card to another slot.
Have your sound card drivers handy when you restart the PC.

You need to call a friend who is good, or bring it to a computer repair shop.
They shouldn't charge you much just to move the card.

In the future, could you please include some of the message you are responding to, in your
reply? That way, all can benefit from the solution.

physcially move the sound card. thank you for your help

You're welcome. Watch him do it so the next time you need to open it up, you can do it
yourself.

I don't think the deal has been completed yet, but Dell's purchase of
Alienware is in the works. See the links here:
