However I pulled it back to IRQ 3 and it still failed, so in this case I don't think it was. > I don't know which Toshiba notebook you have Mike, but if it's anything > like mine, IRQ 11 is dedicated as the "PCI" interrupt, and has about 3-4 > things hung on it - Infrared ports, USB ports, and, hey(?)

It's kinda odd; I don't actually see much PCI action in this guy at all: Probing for devices on PCI bus 0: chip0: rev 0x23 on pci0.0.0 vga0: rev 0xc2 on pci0.4.0 Now, I may have disabled some stuff using Tsetup (why don't they have a BIOS setup like everyone else?), but I'd have expected to see more stuff than that. Certainly nothing claiming any interrupts. I'll have to see what W95 thinks; more data later. mike
