Would you care to give a definitive opinion? :-) > > Jordan No need for apologies... I am going to support the GUS PnP Pro thats the GUS PnP with 512k . The card needs memory to configure itself for GUS Max emulation. This is the entry on my system to get the GUS PnP working: controller snd0 device gus0 at isa? vector gusintr Basically, the gus driver looks for a GUS PnP in the system and then configures the card for the user. Very, very complicated I must say 8) Now if the motherboard does not support PnP or there is some weird conflict on the sytem then just use the old style configuration for the GUS Max: device gus0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 11 drq 1 flags 0x3 vector gusintr Now the only gotcha that I have over here is that playback using 16bit dma is not working other than that the card is working fine. So if I specify dma 1 for playback and dma 3 for recording the driver works just fine. If I don't get the gus pnp 16bit dma support tonite I will release the driver however you guys will have to configure the card the old way to use 8 bit dma channels. I will be back in a few hours this system is going up and down till I can figure out what the hell is going on with 16bit dma playback. Enjoy, Amancio
