I think Hiten responded based on the "can't assign resource"
messages, without reading all the way through; I sometimes do
"kneee-jerk" responses to problem reports, as well.  The reason
his advice didn't help you suppress the messages is that the
failure is in port and IRQ assignments, not in memory window
assignments.

The problem is related to multiple claimants for the device: the
BIOS, vs. the OS.  If you change the BIOS settings for "PnP OS",
the messages should "go away".  Note that the messages are just
warnings; they will not make anything "not work", given your
configuration.


The "maildirs issue", I won't comment on, at this time.
