  Thanks for the help, Jonathan.  Just in case anyone is having the same
issue, I also found this -

To stop the annoying bogus stray irq 7 messages you can hack the source
where these messages originate from and change the counter value 5 to 0
so the messages will no longer be issued.

isa_strayintr lives in  /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/intr_machdep.c  

 
cd /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/

cp intr_machdep.c intr_machdep.c.org  # make bkup of original

ee intr_machdep.c

 

Find isa_strayintr to locate start of stray irq 7 logic

 
change this

       if (intrcnt[1 + intr] <= 5)

 To  this

       if (intrcnt[1 + intr] <= 0)

 
Recompile your kernel source and those stray irq 7 messages are gone.
Document this some place for your self just in case you reinstall from
cdrom.
