Hi all I am new to this forum, I am taking an A+ class now. I have been around computers for about 10 yrs now,, but never got down to the nitty gritty with them.. Some of the things I am haveing problems with are memorizing the I/O addresses and DMA's I was hoping you all could give me some pointers or tips on how to memorize these better icon_wink.gif
Also I have not had to much luck in locating the DMA alocations on this site are there any?

Oh and Hi all love your site it has been a big help Thanks a mill.
Joe

    Write them down 400x. Read them. Rinse and repeat as necessary.

    there's no real formula, I hate to say. Just memorize the buggers.
    I do not have a psychiatrist and I do not want one, for the simple reason that if he listened to me long enough, he might become disturbed.

    There is a trick to the serial port addresses.. i just don't remember it. :D A lot of real world usefulness there... As for DMA and IRQ's... that's just it-- memorize. Again, more real world usefulness. ACPI, PnP and USB makes it almost a moot point.
    I'm not a complete idiot... some parts are missing.
