Setup:

CUSL2 w/o onboard audio (with video, but disabled)
1006A BIOS
Matrox Millenium G450 in AGP slot
3com 905c-tx NIC in PCI slot 4
Windows 98
Pretty much all the latest drivers and flashes, although
earlier combos have been tried too.

No matter what I seem to do, I can't get the card to
get an IRQ assigned. I've tried reserving one in the
bios, turning off most of the extra features on the
motherboard, turning PnP on and off, and installing
the drivers for the mobo and g450 in different orders...
nothing works. On boot-up, the bios always says

display controller NA

when listing the attached hardware, and the system
control panel never shows the matrox, even when
there are free IRQs. Obviously, direct X doesn't work
in this situation.

I would prefer running 98 over 2k. What should I try
next?
