Do a
more /proc/ioports

Output will be like:
.....
0170-0177 : ide1
01f0-01f7 : ide0
0220-022f : soundblaster
0280-029f : NE2000
02f8-02ff : serial(auto)
0330-0333 : MPU-401 UART
.....

Perhaps it'll be listed.  Who makes the card?  Do you have the
manufacturer's install disk/software?  I have an ISA card with a utility
to let me program the IO and IRQ.
