Hello Dan, ooooh, you have got some activity going on there haven't you?

Yes it does only have 16 irq's to do everything with, So, you need to
free some up really, that will make things a little bit better.

If you don't have any USB devices on your system then switch it off in
the bios, and disable it in device manager.

Also switch off any com ports that you aren't using as well.

AND this one really should have been done first, Switch off the onboard
sound as well, if you are not using it.


All of the 'sci irq used by acpi bus' references are supposed to be
there as well.


Some things should shuffle about once these are freed up, but only do it
to the devices mentioned that you aren't using.
