Hi, > I checked /proc/irq and the IRQ 5 is free which is set in > modules.conf, also the Ioport 0x530 is free. What do you mean by "free"? AFAIK you have to give an unused IRQ in modules.conf, but you should look into /proc/ioports to get the correct base io port address of your sound card (your should see some entry of the card). Andre.
