| Interference/buzz on MAYA1010 outs with new PC |

I recently upgraded to a dual-core Intel PC after my old one (P4) just wasn't cutting it anymore. I'm on XP (SP2) and I've been using the same MAYA1010 interface for a while without any trouble. Everything is working fine with the new PC after I installed the interface, but I did notice a strange interference/buzz when I connected a secondary pair of (active) monitors to the 2nd stereo out-pair. It did the same on the 3rd stereo-out pair and I can hear it when I really turn the headphone outs up. It doesn't seem to be an issue when my main monitors (passive B&W's driven by an amp) alone are connected and the inputs are working fine. The right sides of each stereo out also seems to be more affected than the lefts. This was never an issue on my old PC.
I checked and found that the interface was sharing IRQ's with 2 other devices. Switching to a new PCI-slot (new PC has 2) didn't help. I disabled the devices that it shared the IRQ with (PCI-E and Network-somethingorother) but that didn't help. Uninstalling the newer drivers and installing the older ones that I used on the old PC didn't help either.
Although everything is fine when only my main monitors are connected and the interference isn't really that bad it is noticable. I also won't be able to do things like reamping or taking signals out to analog gear if I need to do that, which is kinda annoying. I would like to have the option.
Any help on how to fix this is greatly appreciated.
