I'm in late on this discussion so please
excuse any ignorance on this that may follow.
Before summer I released a piece of software
that tested the IRQ 7 line for the printer
port. The purpose: to see if the IRQ line
worked for your card. Bottom line,
code is available (should be) from freebsd
and the application is general enough to
check for stray IRQs in the DOS enviroment.
