You could try to insert the NIC into another slot and see if the
problem persists. Some MoBos are designed in a way that some onboard
HW shares its IRQ with a PCI slot.
Additionally your BIOS might offer you a way to specify an interrupt
for the slot in question. I don't know if FreeBSD honours this setting
during boot, though.
