I accidentally deleted the original sender's message, but I noticed that he'd said his sound card was using IRQ7, and I'd suggest trying IRQ5, 9, or 10 first. Most recent mainboards have built-in parallel ports which default to 0x378 and IRQ7, and it's quite possible that that's causing a conflict. Even if he has it turned off in the BIOS, some boards actually don't shut the device off. It's worth a check.
