get error message when launching Studio 11 - says 'No IRQ driver selected" " initialization failed" has worked for years until today?

Check out this FAQ, it might help with the error message you get.

Have tried this and still same result. Noticed in their instructions the Usermode ISR box has " Mmtimeru.irq" in box. When I try to open Studio 11 the Username ISR box has nothing listed in it. Not sure if that has any bearing. Really hoping to not reinstall software as feel there must be an easy fix to this as noticed several people have googled this problem. Thanks in advance for your response.

Is your S11 Copy a Download or Disk?

I have the same problem and have followed the suggested steps (download a certain file or reinstall). The download did not solve the problem, and reinstalling only works temporarily. Then I get the same error message.  I can't keep reinstalling Studio over and over. Any other advice?  Does Studio 16 experience the same problem? Thanks.

Does anyone at Pinnacle or elsewhere know whether Studio 16 suffers from the same "No IRQ driver selected" problem as Studio 15?  If Studio 16 fixes that problem, I would be willing to upgrade from Studio 15.  If not, then it's time to change programs entirely.  Any insights?  Thanks!

Have you gone through this lot yet? http://forums.pinnaclesys.com/search/SearchResults.aspx?q=%27No+IRQ+driver+selected&g=7

I don't know. Guessing that Windows OS IRQ (Interrupt Request) prioritizes program loads according to their IRQ number priority. If there's no Studio IRQ Driver? Then  Windows can't load it.

ADDED - Ignore that. Since Windows has already Loaded Studio . 

 IMO,  Windows is still looking to prioritise. There's  a System Pop-up which I can never immediately find when I need it, giving various Program Options EG; let Windows Decide. It may be that is related to the IRQ priority which works in tandem with another Widows function, which I can't remember It's few years since I last Posted on the subject. 

If I have time, I'll check-out my PC "Bible" (1000 pages ). I think it has an explanation. 

If you have an S15 Program Disk, Copying it to your Desktop & Running the Setup EXE File from there "might" over-ride that Error Message.
