Your sig shows Win2K - which with ACPI will share IRQ very nicely. Slot 1 will share with the AGP (NOT a good idea) and Slot 4 will share with Slot 5. ONE of the other slots will share with the USB - and if you have onboard sound, one of the other slots will share with it.

If your bios has "APIC" (not the same as ACPI) enable it, and Win2K will use IRQ's higher than 15.
