i am looking for software (preferably Windows) that can monitor active IRQ lines. i have used Rosenthal Conflict Resolver (RCR) which works in DOS/real mode and does a pretty good job of indicating active IRQs in real-time. RCR displays IRQ numbers across the top of the screen, and the numbers will light up when that IRQ is active -- e.g., if you move a mouse attached to COM1, the indicator for IRQ4 will light up; if you access the hard drive, the indicator for IRQ14 will light up, etc. i have scoured the Internet and looked at TONS of diagnostic/system analysis programs and have not been able to find quite what i'm looking for. i'm a teacher at a computer technology school and i like to use diagnostic programs in class to demonstrate various priniciples of PC technology. anyway, any suggestions would be appreciated.
