IO Libraries GPIB Configuration Troubleshooting Guide

If your sound card stops working after configuring interfaces

• The auto-detection process in IO Config can cause sound and other cards to stop responding. To disable the auto-detection process, edit c:\Program Files\agilent\IO Libraries\intfcfg\intfcfg.txt, follow the instructions to set all of your GPIB cards to be manually detected by IO Config.

If devices attached to your ISA GPIB card are detected, but data transfers to those devices fail

This is usually caused either by an IRQ conflict with another card or by your system having no IRQ's available for this card. If no IRQ's are available, the IRQ value shown in IO Config will be -1.

Windows NT:

Try changing the IRQ setting to other values. You must reboot after changing the value to test it. If none work, you will have to free up other IRQ's by disabling devices such as serial ports or sound cards.

Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows 2000:

You will have to free up other IRQ's by disabling devices such as serial ports or sound cards. This is usually done in the BIOS setup for your computer.
