Ok, I'll give it a try the next time I have my case open (thats pretty well
daily! <grin>)

Boy, do I understand that. The Soyo MB that I was having so many IRQ problems
with (everything wanted to grab IRQ 11, dunno why) had integrated sound. Don't
like it. I gave that setup to my son, (age 10) who is now dual-booting with
Linux (with the small number of cards he has though, its okay) and Windog. I
switched to one of Civileme's recommendations - a generic Shuttle MB.
Installed same cards I had in the Soyo MB, and got no IRQ conflicts at all. Go
figure. ;-)
Thanks for the reply!
