I have the same config & OS and don't have any major problems. The irq
sharing is very likely contributing to the problem.
Given what you're tried above, try moving the TDM card to another
slot on the motherboard. It will likely be assigned to a different irq.
If you don't have any other slots, consider replacing the mobo.
