Default ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe + Nvidia GeForceFX 5900 Ultra + Creative Labs SoundBlaster Audigy 2 Platinum eX + Adaptec AHA2940UW UltraWide SCSI Controller

Greetings everyone:

Would there be any issues running the ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe with everything
enabled except for the sound or does it disable automatically when you have
your own soundcard with the following?

Nvidia GeForceFX 5900 Ultra
Creative Labs SoundBlaster Audigy 2 Platinum eX
Adaptec AHA2940UW UltraWide SCSI Controller

Would there be any sorts of IRQ or DMA conflicts under WinXP? Since I'm
not sure if the built-in things on the motherboard can have it's IRQ/DMA
resources shared with multiple devices or not especially with things like
the RAID controllers for both S-ATA and P-ATA. Or does the board support
the stray IRQs where it assigns more than 16 IRQs but virtually? Also,
would it be wise to have PnP OS disabled in the BIOS as people have always
done so the BIOS does the resource assignments rather than the OS. Thanks.

Cheers,
Vince
