my sound card and my usb port both share the same IRQ number. if i try to use both at the same time, i have problems. can i change the IRQ number? hope this is in the right section.

You can probably change the IRQ in BIOS, or you can try changing card slots.

changing slots usually works best...also might look in BIOS and see if you can change assign "usb irq"....might work one way and not the other.

Are you using your sound card in the top PCI slot?

If so, thats your problem, stick it in the lowest slot available. Better cooling and no sharing conflicts.
