Hello group!

Sometime it happens that two adjacent PCI cards don't work. But as you
interchange their slots. The pair starts working. Why is it so?

Is it related to the priority of the IRQs?

It depends on how the motherboard has assigned interrupts.
The cards typically share interrupts with onboard devices.
