Hi !

Thanks for your answer, I'll try to be more precise.

You're right, but being stuck in 640x480x4bits is quite annoying to read
docs like this one ;) (poor excuse, I know).

As the name suggests, it's a TV/FM tuner (PCI). I have of course the
latest Leadtek drivers for WinXP.

I've read somewhere that fixes exist for some drivers so they take less
ressources where these are needed (seen on Microsoft support site). I
never had to worry about free ressources before, but this time I'm quite
confused : I've only 1 pci device, 1 AGP and 2 onboard, and Windows just
can't find enough IO addresses ?!? I've also tried do deactivate every
devices but AGP one (included network, sound card, USB, ...), and it
doesn't help. Seems like they both want their part of memory, without
being willing to move elsewhere.
