Check the BIOS whether you can:<br>
Change the IRQ assignments<br>
Disable the extra hardware using the same IRQ<br>
<br>
Or otherwise try changing the slot it is in... I had very good results<br>
in the past swapping card around<br>
<br>
Good luck!<br>

I did a bit of investigation WRT the IRQ settings on this box. <br>
<br>
00:02.1 USB Controller: nVidia Corporation CK804 USB Controller (rev
a3) (prog-if 20)<br>
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 3207<br>
Flags: bus master, 66MHz, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 11<br>
--<br>
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2
MX/MX 400] (rev b2)<br>
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 3207<br>
Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11<br>
--<br>
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5721
Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 11)<br>
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 3209<br>
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 11<br>
--<br>
81:01.0 Network controller: Tiger Jet Network Inc. Tiger3XX Modem/ISDN
interface<br>
Subsystem: Device 79fe:0001<br>
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11<br>
<br>
So basically there's 2 network cards and a USB controller sharing IRQ
11 with the Openvox card. <br>
<br>
I wasn't able to find any settings in the bios to manually configure
IRQ assignments :( <br>
<br>
Could someone tell me how to set which IRQ the ISDN card picks up?<br>
<br>

Hi, <br>
Unfortunately is not always possible and it depends on how the
mainboard was realized. For what I can understand a lot of producers
decide to route only a subset of physical IRQ lines to the PCI slots (I
think is something related to cost reduction) and to share it with
other onboard peripherals. <br>
This lets impossible to change the IRQ assignment for expansion cards.<br>
<br>
This is not always true and sometimes swapping add-on cards solves the
problem.<br>
<br>
We had better results with cards based on new Digium technology or with
Sangoma cards.<br>
<br>
