Chris, The order in which you select the modules is important. You also have not sent the correct 16-bit DMA to the module .... it should match the relevant setting in isapnp.conf. I'd imagine it's on irq 5, io 220, dma's 1 and 5. In modconf, select (in this order - you may have to go through and unload any that are loaded first) - 1. sound <- possibly pass parameter dmabuf=1 - if you have a decent amount of RAM - gives persistent DMA buffers 2. sb <- with parameter line -> io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 (or replace with your own settings) 3. soundlow 4. awe_wave 5. opl3 <- with parameter line -> io=0x388 Mail me back if you're still haviong problems - might be isapnp related.
