I did it.

I tried to put it in each of the four slots, but it got still the same IRQ.

Could you tell me please, where I can get these tools (for SB Live! 5.1)?

I removed all cards and let just the graphic card and the sound card.
First I tried to put just the GC to every slot, but everytime it got the IRQ 10.
When I added the SC and tried putting in each slot, GC got the IRQ 11 and SC 10.
Isn't there any utility or patch, that could allow to change manually the (P)IRQ assignement in BIOS or immediately after PC/POST start?
