I just went through all this as well. The best thing to do IMHO is to 
try to find a way to manually assign IRQ in the BIOS. Also, and this is 
what I didn't see at first, some slots SHARE IRQ. Avoid this! If you are 
not using USB at all, turn it off in BIOS if possible. Tell the BIOS 
"NOT INSTALLED" for any peripherals not installed. I was able to remove 
parallel and serial interfaces as well since nothing is connect to this 
box. Here's what I have now:

   0:   27713309          XT-PIC  timer
   1:        167          XT-PIC  keyboard
   2:          0          XT-PIC  cascade
