I just installed a new ASUS P5N-D motherboard and have disabled the onboard sound, installed my C-Media PCI Audio Device and NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT PCI-e video card and windows 7 ha assigned them both IRQ 16 and will not allow me to change the IRQ. When I am in a game that uses lots of graphics and sounds my computer freezes sometimes it will unfreeze after i let it set a minute other times have to do a hard restart. Any suggestions on how to get the IRQ's reset? I have uninstalled and reinstalled both.
Beginning with XP, Windows no longer let users change IRQs. The only thing you can do is prioritize the IRQs. How to configure interrupt request (IRQ) priorities in Windows Vista and 7
