IRQs - is it bad that my video card and network card are sharing the same one?

[beer]

Both my Nvidia geforce DDR and my Phoneline 10M card are sharing the same IRQ - IRQ11. I know that this is bad...but when I try to get them to move to different IRQs by manually changing the settings, I get a "This setting cannot be modified" error.

Am I experiencing any performance loss when they do share the same IRQ? I use that network card to connect to my ICS server when playing games online...

I don't think you will have any problems....but if you want to change the irq's, you have to set it in the bios of your motherboard.

1) Are you running Win2k? If so don't worry about it
2) If not, as long as nothing is flaking out, don't worry about it

Well Windows isn't flaking out, per se, but if I can get an extra 5 fps on UT then I will more than happily move a mountain (metaphorically speaking) to do so.
