When you move the card, you should run Compaq System Configuration (Hit F10 on boot if its there...or boot using Compaq SMART START CD)
Compaq System Config, will analyse the hardware in the server. Then it will automatically configure the settings for the hardware...like plug and play. After every hardware change, you should run System Configuration.
In System Configuration, you will be able to verify that when the card moved, if the IRQ changed. You can change it back in System Config.
