Have you set Plug & Play OS? to NO in the computer's BIOS setup???
Have you gone into the PCI / PNP set up in the bios and manually assigned
IRQ's?

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to get past the point of conflicting at the I/O
addresses, buffer memory range assignment, and interrupt. All of these are in
collision with local system resources. Windows asserts that none of the
assignments can be changed in Device Manager.
