Your ps-2 mouse uses irq12, so your com1 is open.
Set your card jumpers to (irq4,3f8).
Make sure you go into system bios and find
your serial port1 settings and disable com1,
or chnge it to another address and irq.
Otherwise your motherboard's serial port
will conflict with your card.
Your soundcard should go on irq5,
and printer on irq7. Make sure you
check bios settings for your
lpt port.
