My BIOS didnt have the ability to adjust for IRQ 12, according to all
diagnostics IRQ 12 was taken, i put a SCSI-2 scontroller on that IRQ and
its running happily (it was the only free IRQ in this system) :)
but yeah, i'd say look in your BIOS, or look on board.. and if possible.
consult the motherboard booklet if available.
