I believe you can set the irq at boot by modifying grub, but I don't
know the syntax.
BTW - My IRQ 5 is shared between a pci nic card and usb and it runs just
fine.

See if you can switch the NIC to another PCI slot on your mainboard.
Certain slots will share IRQs.
I had read somewhere that soundcards don't like to share IRQs.
