SYMPTOMS
When you install Windows NT version 3.5 on a computer with the Intel Neptune 82434 PCI Cache Memory Controller (PCMC) the system stops responding (hangs).
CAUSE
The call, IoAssignResources fails if the target PCI device and the driver's requested resource list do not request interrupt vectors and the BIOS doesn't assign an interrupt vector.
