Comment (by anevilyak):

 Replying to [comment:5 ttcoder]:
 > In the past I read here about a temporary workaround for such problems:
 removing drivers for devices that are active (and eating up an IRQ each)
 until finding the "sweet spot".. Maybe a new driver was introduced between
 revs, reorganizing your IRQs.. Or just the IO-APIC interrupt allocation
 algorithm..

 Drivers make no difference, interrupt allocation is decided at one of two
 points: 1) at power-up by the BIOS, or 2) very early in the boot process
 during IO-APIC configuration, well before any driver's loaded. The drivers
 simply take what they're given. That having been said, IRQ16 is an IO-APIC
 interrupt, so the most likely cause for the issue here is the addition of
 IO-APIC support. Would be interesting to know if the card works properly
 with the latter disabled in the boot menu options.
