You do know that interrupts can be shared on the PCI bus, correct? I'm confused about the statement "taking resources from", what exactly are you talking about?

If you want to disable the motherboard I/O devices, check the BIOS, that's normally where you kill them off.

Oh, even though the devices are integrated into the MB, that doesn't render them non-PnP, just embedded.

Re: well

i am not sure if this means anything, but if it is an AGP video card you are trying to install then you will have to tell your bios to use the AGP first. if you get this working this will give you the ability to run two monitors and have an extended desktop, because both video cards can run at the same time.

im jealous.

Most integrated video nowadays is AGP, so another AGP card isn't an option. OTOH, I've popped a PCI video into one with a build-in video and gotten both to run...
