No ISA slot on the board right enough, so an ISA buss is probably not present
Must be a different exclusive buss on those newer boards. On our NF2 board those allocations are running on the ISA buss.
Actually any ps/2 mouse/keyboard, parallel port and/or serial port would technically be on the 'ISA' bus. This is built into the PCI chipset and transparent, but the ISA bus is technically still there. I don't think that has anything to do with 'exclusive' in that irq list though, especially since IDE controllers definately don't need 16bit ISA suppport...

I'd maybe have tried another graphics card first, but a new HD & fresh install is always good once in a while
yeah, i needed the new HD anyway, so i didn't buy that specifically to tackle this problem, although i could use a new gfx card as well

if your Mb have real IRQ' over 15° is all ok bat if the IRQ's over the 15° are virtual IRQ the card in this IRQ over the 15° are condivise I think
