 } Ok, thats weird.

 } Did you disable all devices in the visual config screen that are set to
 } probe 0x300?  Realistically you should be disabling all devices that you
 } know you don't have.
 
 Nop. It could be any one of the following ISA driver with port 0x300
 since device "ep" no longer has no dependent description --
 	 at isa? port 0x300 irq 10
 in its line, so the other devices may be confused. Is there any way
 to resolve this problem without disable all such ISA driver?
