A dmesg will be very helpful for me to write a patch from, as it will allow me to see if it is or is not the sound driver overlapping memory in your case. I suspect that the BIOS images are so similar that you probably even have almost the same bios-chosen memory regions on your system. >=20 > > RAR, > > > > You are in luck!
