first the obvious: check bios settings, now just slightly less obvious: make sure lilo is installed on mbr (at least I think that's where it needs to be, check the docs for lilo) > 2. What driver should I use for the sound card? what soundcard do you have? Is it the onboard one? ac97 or something like that is often found on via motherboards, there's a driver for that chipset for linux (at least alsa), but the sound quality is quite poor (at least that's my observation and also confirmed by other people on this list) erik
