Mike, you can check IRQ conflicts like this:
cat /proc/interrupts

If there are - you can try shifting cards around. Also, if you're -not- using
some things on your PC (printer port, just for example) you can turn them off
in BIOS and gain an IRQ or 2 back. Just make sure its not something that you
are actually using! :-)
HTHs.
