Hey folks.
I recently upgraded from a Celeron 300A/440BX to an Athlon 800/VIA 82C686A.
My ES1370 sound card worked fine with the Celeron, but does not work well at
all in the Athlon system; it crackles a bit under light system load, and
makes horrible slowed-down grinding noises if the CPU is very busy.
The VIA board comes with an on-board AC97 code, which I tried, but turned off
because it didn't seem to support any useful sample frequencies and was very
noisy.
I've seen a few posts from people having similar problems. I don't think I
have any interrupt conflicts, at least not between simultaneously active
devices. I've juggled the box's cards and BIOS settings quite a bit, but
haven't been able to get better performance. Is this a problem with the VIA
chipset support?
Dmesg enclosed below. Thanks in advance if anyone has advice or wisdom
for me.
