if common sense is so uncommon, why is it called common then?

Problem is I'm not at all familure with that baord, google didn't turn up any working setups and the result list was short, and I don't have as much time as I used to. Although my rates haven't changed since then. :P

You either set it in bios or move the card to a different slot.

Yes it very well could be a problem. You can disable unused devices in bios to help and assign irqs to pci buss to help. But you must also have the correct driver loaded for that capture card as well.

Yes I know the kodicom 4400, it's a fairly good card but can be stubern to configure.
Not a really good card for someone that don't understand how it works and even worse if you don't understand how to configure the linux kernel.
You would be better of with any of the PV cards provided by Bluecherry.
