DMA & IRQ's aren't used when playing back audio CD's (normally) - which is why you've probably not noticed any problems... You need to check the IRQ and DMA channel the soundcard is being assigned - and make sure they don't conflict with anything else in the box etc. Regards, Karl Pielorz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
