The topic is IRQs. My system currently uses IRQs 9,10,11,12 for PCI
stuff. Here's what RMVIEW /D says:
[G:\]rmview /d | find /i "irq"
IRQ Level = 2 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = EXCLUSIVE
IRQ Level = 0 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = EXCLUSIVE
IRQ Level = 8 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = EXCLUSIVE
IRQ Level = 1 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = EXCLUSIVE
IRQ Level = 7 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = MULTIPLEXED
IRQ Level = 6 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = MULTIPLEXED
IRQ Level = 14 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = MULTIPLEXED
IRQ Level = 15 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = MULTIPLEXED
IRQ Level = 9 PCI Pin = A Flg = SHARED
IRQ Level = 4 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = EXCLUSIVE
IRQ Level = 5 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = MULTIPLEXED
IRQ Level = 3 PCI Pin = NONE Flg = MULTIPLEXED

No. But I could switch to polling so that the NIC could have the IRQ.

Yeah. PCI040VK gives a bit more info, and a non-bootable floppy in
drive A: freezes the boot screen so I can read what the motherboard's
PnP routine did with the IRQs.
