Memory map
Interrupts
The following table reflects a typical configuration, but you can change these interrupts. Use this
information to determine how to program each interrupt. The actual interrupt map is defined
using configuration registers in the ICH5-R (I/O controller). I/O Redirection Registers in the I/O
APIC are provided for each interrupt signal. The signals define hardware interrupt signal
characteristics for APIC messages sent to local APIC(s).

Important
If you disable an IDE controller to free the interrupt for that controller, you must
physically unplug the IDE cable from the system board. Simply disabling the drive by
configuring the BIOS does not make the interrupt available.
