IRQ conflict

Since installing a new printer the sound has disappeared. The Soundblaster card has the Yellow mark against it so I 'removed' the card and let P&P find it again but still have the same conflict ( This location is shered with LTP 7 or words to that effect) Is there an easy way of correcting?

You can manually change IRQ settings for a device. To do this, right click My Computer; select Properties > Device Manager. In Device Manager, double-click the branch that corresponds to the affected device to expand it and then double-click the entry for the affected device. Click the Resources tab and then clear the Use Automatic Settings checkbox by clicking it. In the Settings Based On selection box, click a configuration containing an IRQ that doesn’t conflict with any other device. For example, if your device is conflicting because it is assigned IRQ 9, you may be able to select a configuration that gives the device an assignment of, say, IRQ 8. There will be a number of choices to select in the selection box, so be sure to choose one that won’t conflict with anything else.
