I seem to have persisting IRQ problems on my Intel Endeavour (Socket 7) BIOS 5
based W95 system.

I have a WD 8003 Network Card 
COM1 & COM 2 (3 & 4)
The Vibra 16 (5)
Floppy (6)
parallel Printer (7)
Miro DC20 (2/9)
AHA 2940 (10)
Matrox Millenium (sharing 9)
Primary and Secondary IDE (14 & 15)

Now my WD8003 is sharing 7 and therefore conflicting. The card can
be set to 2,3,4,5,7. Nothing seems to be using IRQ 12, but I can't 
allocate that to the Matrix, DC20 or 2940. Is there any solution here?
