Well Microsoft makes it quite clear that sharing IRQs between PCI cards is correct as this is how Windows XP is designed. In fact they warn against going into the BIOS and "forcing" cards into different IRQs.

By the way, Zebodog, I checked my drivers for my sound card and they are "official" according to Microsoft. So if the drivers check out signature wise and there really isn't an IRQ issue, I wonder if my BSODs are caused by either my mouse or firewall.

And since they are officially recognized by Microsoft I am wondering now if the reason NWN isn't loading is due to another issue andnot my sound card drivers.
