i used to have the same problem.

each time i re-install windows on the box (every 6 months, tops), it fscks
the pnp info on every card, so i sometimes have to set my card on pnp or
manual config. when this happens, changing the io address fixes the "device
or resource busy" problem. if you can, you may want to try changing the card
io address and passing the new value to the module. not the nicest solution,
but has worked for me before.

hope that helps,
