IRQ conflicts! HEEEELP!

[Mündo]

I just purchased an ASUS s96j barebones laptop. t2500, 2gb corsair...60gb 7200rpm drive...and a firewire soundcard for audio.

the main purpose of this laptop is to record professional audio...but its not possible at the moment because irq16 has 4 devices on it...so anything over 4 tracks of audio and it starts glitching out.

the bios doesn't seem to want to allow me to get out of plug and play mode...and windows of course isnt allowing changes to be made, even in safe mode.

any help someone can offer would be nice...$1900 spent, and i know the laptop is capable of doing everything i need it for...

help!!! lol

So just disable the device you don't need in Device Manager. What devices are sharing IRQ16? Post a screen shot if you could.
