It would be interesting if the IRQ failure was always on IRQ7.
When you moved slots, did the device move to a different IRQ and fail there too?
Running ACPI, you may be able to move that device off of IRQ7 with "acpi_irq_balance" plus "acpi_isa_irq=7".
Hardware routes spurious interrupts to IRQ7, so your device may be an innocent victim of those. Also, there may be some motherboard device pulling on IRQ7 that Linux doesn't know about -- so see if you can disable any extra motherboard devices in BIOS setup.
Finally, you might run a kernel with the IOAPIC enabled, such as the CONFIG_SMP kernel, to see if you have an IOAPIC on the board and if that mode works differently.
