If this happened on my system the first thing I would do is from device manager uninstall the keyboard and let Windows reinstall the keyboard on a reboot.

From what I remember the keyboard should be using IRQ 1 - check this on your system.
 
I reseted bios to default settings... then I reinstalled windows xp, installed sp2 and more patches... even then memory conflict was present...

Keyboard was having the i/o range conflict with motherboard resources... but when i checked for the i/o range conflicts for motherboad resources it had conflicts with system timer, PC/AT enhanced PS/2 keyboard (101/102 - key), system speaker, system cmos/real time clock

so i uninstalled keyboard from the device manager and the rebooted... it was installed in the next boot... but still had the memory conflict....

then i uninstalled Motherboard resources from Device manager (may be this was foolish but just tried). Now my system is not booting... i think i will have to reinstall windows again, but what are the things that i should do before installing xp so that i dont have this resource conflict again?

Should "Plug and Play" be enabled or disabled in BIOS?

Instead of a reinstall try a repair install and see if that works for you - a repair install will still have all your installed programs.

PLUG'N'PRAY = should be disabled in BIOS.

If the following options are there in the BIOS they should be enabled..

ACPI 2.0 support
ACPI APIC support
 
the memory conflicts still exist after reinstalling xp... now the sys seems to be stable.. so left the issue as it is.. may be will try to keep plug and play to yes... thats for the link mate..
