You may want to check you mobo's manual with regard to which PCI slots
need share IRQs. For example, on my computer the AGP slot shares an IRQ
with PCI#1, and the 4 & 5 slots also share an IRQ ... and Windows cannot do
a thing about it. Several types of cards do not like sharing interupts,
SCSI controllers being one (... try a different slot ...), and also older
NICs.
