You turn it on/off in the bios settings. When I had my problems all awas fine
but when using the CD the mouse conflicted. I would do the modprobe crap and it
would work until the next reboot then I would have to go through the crap
again. I (in my newbie ignorance) had many reboots until I figured out that PNP
and ISA cards dont work worth a darn.
