using win xp pro, pent III 600mz. on bootup the error 'conflict i/o ports
2f8' appears. I can hit f1 and continue to boot up. How can I fix this
conflict, what is this conflict

Sounds like a program with com port 2, do you have a modem installed or
something like that?

You may want to change the ioport for (one of) your serial device(s) in
bios, or disable it if not needed.

You're the one having problems. You said, and I quote: "Sounds like a
program with com port 2" and the OP is referring to a BIOS error message.

a bios setup problem, you can setup the ports in bios, and if you miss-set
them, or if a modem ect auto-sets itself to something that is already setup
on bios, then you will get a error message like this,

2F8 is a serial port address for generally com2. In other words, if you
have a hardware modem set with jumbers to com2 and com2 is also enabled
in the bios you may see that message as 2 devices are trying to use 2F8.

A power surge may have set your bios to defaults. See if Serial 2/ com2
is Enabled in the bios. One may disable it there, which disables any
device connected to the com2 port on the back of your pc, if any.
