The line in the config.sys reads DEVICEHIGH=C:\VIBRA16\DRV\VIBRA16.SYS
/UNIT 0 /BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 T6.  I know that my mouse is using
IRQ 4, but I don't know if any other IRQs are being used.  How do I
find out?  I also know that the sound works fine when I just boot up
normally and play Daggerfall.
