Re: ACPI IRO Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
We would need to know as much info as possible about your computer model (usually on a label on the rear or bottom of the computer). If it's a 'homemade' computer, we'd need to know about the motherboard (mfgr/model/etc.).
We need to know what version of Windows you're using as well. I'm sure our first suggestion will be to apply the latest fixes/patches from www.windowsupdate.com.

Re: ACPI IRO Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
The "ACPI IRQ Holder For PCI IRQ Steering" is one I've seen and may be a non-problem. For info see:

My computer is a HP Pavilion N5340 and operating system is Windows ME.
I Checked www.windowsupadte.com for update. There were none.

Re: ACPI IRO Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
I can't find anything at the HP website for your computer:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?product=61307тМй=en&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&os=228
so perhaps James is right. If you don't see any errors in Device Manager, maybe it's not something to be concerned about, especially if you have no other symptoms.
The chipset in your computer is an Intel 440ZXM-100. There is very little support for this chipset on Intel's website but you may want to look at these links:

Make a great day!

Re: ACPI IRO Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
Disable it in Windows and then flash your BIOS and reset the BIOS to default settings.
Refer here:
How IRQs Are Assigned to PCI Devices
In Windows 95 (retail release) and OSR1, the Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) assigns IRQs to PCI devices. With OSR2 and Windows 98:
if PCI bus IRQ steering is disabled in Windows, the BIOS assigns IRQs to PCI devices.
if PCI bus IRQ steering is enabled in Windows, the BIOS still assigns IRQs to PCI devices but Windows can re-assign the IRQs if need be.
In short - when IRQ steering is enabled in Windows, it has the ability to change the settings the BIOS assigned to PCI devices, although it generally does not. It's important to note here that assignment of IRQs to PCI devices, including sharing if necessary, happens even if steering is disabled in Windows.

This issue is only Win9x/WinME
Btw: The link to the BIOS has been posted earlier by Roger.
Hope this help

Re: ACPI IRO Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
I have looked at the different website. And I have checked my computer to see if all the boxes are check right, they are all ok.
So I think James may be right.
Thanks to all.
Roger, I still have the problem with msgrv32.
I don't remember what the meassage said. Should I wait for it to happen again?
Thanks again,
Vicki

Re: ACPI IRO Holder for PCI IRQ Steering
Hi. Yes, when it happens again try to record what precipated it and as much of the error message as you can capture (including details). Then post them here (I think a new thread would be best at that time.)
Make a great day!
