    I am Shengliang Song. I bought NEC READY9522R computer on June 6 in 1996.
    Last month, I added zip drive (parallet port) and an new Western Digital
    hard drive (5.1 gigabyte). And then, I install linux system (Redhat 5.0)
    into my computer. Now, before my computer begins booting, it display
    the following:
        . . .
             3F8H com address conflict
        Fixed Disk 0: Identified
        
        <F1> to resume, <F2> to stetup

     I did not know why? ( Is there something wrong my new hard drive or
     Redhat 5.0 or zip drive? Or is there something wrong my computer?)
     After pressing F1, I can boot win 95 or UINX (Redhat 5.0). They all
     work fine. My only problem is that "3F8H com address conflict". What
     is that meaning? How do I get that? In addtion, when I boot with win95,
     I, sometimes, can not find my CD drive, but sometimes I can find it.

          Second, when I boot with linux (Redhat 5.0), and I cannot start
          X window because it does not have configuration file with
          my Alliance ProMotion (version 4.1.19).
          
          Do I have to change a video card?
          How do I start X window with Alliance ProMotion?
     
     Sincerely,

     Shengliang Song
