DL360 G2 with NT4 IRQ issue

I have a DL360 G2 installed with NT 4 Server, into which has been installed a PCI card. This is allocated an IRQ which is shared with the second (on-board) NIC (which I need to use). The manufacturer of the PCI card tells me this conflict/share is causing some problems I am seeing.

I've looked at the system configuration (F9 at boot) and tried reassigning IRQs there, but the changed configuration doesn't make it to Windows. Does anyone know a way of me reassigning the IRQs correctly?

simply put the card into another pci slot... that will change the irq for that card.

if no more slots are free, switch this card with one of your pci cards that support irq sharing

and since nt4 does not support pnp very well you may have to remove the drivers before you switch the slots and reinstall afterwards...
