I just finished installing winxp on a computer and everything went ok.I was just wondering why it piled everyting on one IRQ.I have the video,lan card,sound card card and modem all on IRQ 10.I tried moving the cards to different slots but it does no good.The system seems to be running fine but there are so many unused IRQs.I had win98 on it before I installed xp and everything was on it's own IRQ.It's an Abit KG7 Raid,Gforce4 440mx video,Creative sound card,WD hd,Linksys lan card.Should I be concerned about it?
