I would wonder if the SB driver and/or card has the capacity to share
interrupts.  IRQ7 I think is usually taken by the parallel port, but
the kernel probed it as "polled"...

I'd go back to the BIOS setup stuff and check out IRQ assignments there.
See what it thinks it may have assigned to IRQ7.  Some mobos allow you
to assign IRQ's to PCI slots and/or mark certain IRQ's as "in use by
a non-PnP device".  See if you can (re)arrange things so that the SB
isn't sharing an IRQ.
