3.7.2 Assigning IRQs for Expansion Cards

Some expansion cards need an IRQ to operate. Generally, an IRQ must be exclu-

sively assigned to one use. In a standard design, there are 16 IRQs available but

most of them are already in use, leaving 6 IRQs free for expansion cards. If your

motherboard has PCI audio onboard, an additional IRQ will be used. If your moth-

erboard also has MIDI enabled, another IRQ will be used, leaving 4 IRQs free.

arise between the two PCI groups that will make the system unstable or cards

inoperable.
