This device cannot find enough free resources..

Did you check for the latest Vista compatible drivers at the ATI website?
How much main system ram does the laptop have since graphics card is
sharing? What is else are you doing or is running on the system when the
video is playing?

There are no Vista compatible drivers for the ATI IGP320M chipset. Vista
has one I can choose but no luck. Vista says the pci-bus is sharing with
the video chipset. I have 1 gig RAM,128 Video Ram.

I just installed Vista Home Premium in my laptop, I get "This device cannot
find enough free resources...(code 12)" error on my video, it is an ATI
Radeon IGP320M with 128 meg shared ram. I updated my bios yet no luck.
Anyone know of a fix for this?

Which make and model of notebook? Did you install the motherboard (or
rather systemboard since it's a notebook) drivers and utilities from the
notebook manufacturer's website?

It is a Emachine M5312. 1gig RAM, 128meg ATI IGP320 onboard Video. There are
no Vista updates from emachine, no updates EVER from emachine. It works grat
under XP, here is the problem:

The pci-pci bridge shares resources with my onboard ATI IGP320M video
chipset resulting in me not being
able to load the video driver. I get this: "This device cannot find enough
free resources that it can use. (Code 12) If you want to use this device,
you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system." Of course
if I disable the pci bridge than it does not detect my video chipset. There
is no settings in my bios for this. Any suggestions? I've Googled,
etc but no luck.

Thanks

Although I cannot help you directly, this seems to be an ever recurring
problem with Vista. I built a new system last week with a brand new Abit
mobo and Vista produced exactly the same problem when I tried to install a
TV card. It was only resolved after two days of menkeying around and
eventually installing latest Bios and chipset drivers on the mobo. What is
the problem with Vista and IRQ assignments ??

I gave up and installed it on a desktop instead of MY laptop. No problems
installing it on an AMD 3500 64. 1 gig RAM, Nvidia 256 6800 GT. I would have
really liked to have put it on my laptop though.
