can't get my dvd's to work the (SiS 5513 dual PCI IDE) shows the error:
This device is causing a resource conflict{Code 15}
from the system/hard disk controller screen

my help on Hardware trouble shooting does not seem to work after
clicking the button, screen just goes blank

have an identical computer system setup as the one i lost my CD's on,
the problem computer with the resource error [15} on the SiS 5513
Dual PCI IDE controller...

the new PC shows CDROM listed under the device manager with both
cdr & cdw. The hard disk controller shows primary and secondary
controller as well as the SiS 5513 Dual PCI IDE controller

i checked the files on the problem system to make sure they existed
the same as the new system and they are there

windows\system\iosubsys\ESDI_506.pdr
windows\system\vmm32\IOS.vxd

the BIOS on the problem system knows the cd's are there when it is booted

the resource values are the same on both systems for the SiS 5513 controller
but the problem system does not list CDROM drives in the system hardware
list and the primary and secondary controller on the system/hard disk controller
are not listed on the problem computer i tried to unplug both cd's and boot but
system wouldn't boot. Pluged one back in and the system came up, but still
had the resource error on the SiS 5513..
how do we get the primary and secondary controller reloaded and get the
CDROM listed in the system/harfware device manager on the problem computer?
Thanks
Michael

The ultimate question is what is it conflicting with? Somewhere in the properties you'll find which other device(s) its conflicting with.
