Ok I guess Im once again having a conversation with my self..:) Removed the

understanding than I cares to respond...

I dont understand why the bios assigns IRQ 9 to the nic and the kernel 
assigns IRQ 5 to the same nic which conflicts with the bios and kernal 
assignment of IRQ 5 for the sound card (sb16) once the modules are loaded.

Best and thanks
