Guidelines for troubleshooting and resolving device conflicts
Follow these steps for resolving device conflicts.
1 If the conflicting device is no longer present in the list of devices, click the device name, click
Remove, and then click Yes. Click Yes to restart Windows.
2 If the conflicting device is a duplicate (and one of the duplicate listings does not show a conflict),
click the name(s) of the device(s) that have a conflict, click Remove, and then click Yes. Click
Yes to restart Windows.
NOTE You might not need to restart the computer in Windows 2000 and Windows XP,
depending on the type of port conflict you are resolving.
3 If a device has a conflict and you have the driver for that device, remove the device and then reinstall
it. After removing the device, restart the computer. When Windows reinstalls devices, it usually finds
nonconflicting resources.
