[Pc_Support] "Not enough resources" on fresh Windows 2000 install?

I've just installed Windows 2000 with SP4 on a laptop and I'm getting
the following error for the video and PC-Card slots:

This Device Cannot Find Enough Free Resources That It Can Use

The laptop is an old Winbook GoBook Lite with a Pentium MMX and 64mb of
RAM.  Each of the three devices it complains about are correctly
identified by Windows, infact there are no unknown devices in the entire
device manager (a first for me).

Has anyone suggestions on how to maybe fix this?  The OS install had SP4
slipstreamed on it (much easier to do than upgrading post-install) so
has all of the latest drivers, I'm just not sure what to do to fix this.

One obvious question is, are the resources its complaining about IRQs or
is does it want more memory?  I've tried disabling some of the unwanted
devices, have disabled the floppy drive and USB, but the problem
persists.

Thanks.
