I have a legacy data acquisition card that used a dll and dual ported
memory for communications with a problem. THe problem is the card
doesn't show up in device manager so there doesn't appear to be a way
to block off the memory used by the ISA card for communications.

How can I prevent other drivers from using the same I/O memory space?

RIght now if I am lucky, the card will work as it should when I
install it on a computer (mostly when the card isn't in the computer
when I install Win2K).

On other machines, I just can't communicate with the card.

Any ideas on what I could try or perhaps a better form to discuss this
problem in.

Thanks
