  that's the problem - the bios indeed has four (IIRC) pirq groups (I
guess that's what they call them instead of abcd), each of them can be
assigned an interrupt but the members of groups are static, one of the
group has network card and two USBs in it and there's nothing I can do
about it (BIOS). I'll try to move the cards, maybe that will help.

  I have seen the warning about having eth0 and usb on the same
interrupt ion other responses - why is the network card a particular
problem?

  I see that it's called plug and play for a reason, I have been playing
with it for more than a week now, don't even have time to get to puzzles
I got for christmas:-)
