Your USB controller is already using the IRQ that you need, assuming it is installed properly. Many devices can share IRQ's but that is kinda complicated for 1930 characters.

all usb devices use the same irq (irq sharing) in fact most devices share irq's right now (5 9 and 11 are popular)

Install the software that came with your camera, reboot, then plug in the device, windows will detect it and ask you to go through the install procedure in which case, it already knows where the drivers are for it.
Good luck!
