Your motherboard should come with a manual which should have the info on how to disable the CS4232c if not just call the motherboard manufacturer. Here is an old posting from Randal Hopper: From: rhh@ct.picker.com (Randall Hopper) To: multimedia@freebsd.org, bkogawa@primenet.com Subject: ANN: AWEDRV 0.2.99c AWE32 & Sound Blaster 32 owners: AWEDRV 0.2.99c was released recently. This drops right into a 2.2-ALPHA kernel -- just follow INSTALL.frbsd in the driver package. New features: recent versions now allow loading .SBKs/.SF2s directly without patching, and also support stereo/multi-layer instruments. If you'd like to try it, I've created a help page you might want to browse: http://multiverse.com/~rhh/awedrv/ Have fun, Amancio >From The Desk Of Conrad Sabatier : > Hope no one minds the cross-mailing.
