Abstract
A method and system for resolving or preventing bus address conflicts between interface cards of a personal computer involves using a register instead of a switch to allow a user to select an address based on programming. When a conflict occurs between addresses of two interface cards, one of the interface cards may be re-addressed by re-programming the card with no need for manually setting a switch.
