Hi i hawe a 8K7A and i hawe the soundcard in the PcI 2 and the card hawe his own IRQ since i dont hawe the raid version.
But i hawe the NIC on the PCI 3 (sound disabled) and this NIC card share the IRQ 11 with my HSP56 Modem on the PCI 4 and also the tho share with the USB .
So i hawe 3 things who share the same IRQ .
Do i must set something in bios or what can i do to fix this problem please ?
Thanx for the info .
 
Why i must put the Soundcard on the PCI 6 ,..6 is shared with USB.
And 4 PCI is shared with PCI 6 so why this ?
PCI 3 Share with onboard sound and i hawe this sound disabled so why you say to let that one empty ?
And why i must reformat ?
 
well its up to you.

i had a 8k7a but if you want problems leave it how it is.

mine is tried and true other than a modem i had a raid card in the pci slot
 
Well , what i know is :
PCI 1 share with AGP
PCI 2 share with PCI 5 and HTP 370 ( non raid version here)
PCI 3 share with Onboard sound (disabled here)
PCI 4 share with PCI 6 and USB
 
I fixed the problem without reinstall windows 98SE and without slot change , i disabled Port Com 2 (Irq3) and assigned the Modem to IRQ 3 , reboot and now i hawe Nic on the IRQ 11 alone and nothing shared anymore (since 3 share with onboard disabled sound) and the HSP 56 Modem on IRQ 3.
ACAPI function is enabled .
 
but i dont think he wanted to go through the trouble of reformatting 🙂

i also usually disable my com ports, its not like i use them so why let them take up an irq
