Its hung off the ISA bridge. On the one hand, this is annoying, because it means that the board has no sound chip built into it as part of the multi-I/O chip, which shoots me in the foot. 8-(. On the other hand, it's an Intel bridge chip, which might give creedence to the idea that it's limited to 2 DMA channel negotiations, and barfs if you try to stick another PCI card in it that does DMA, which keeps my other foot safe. 8-). > > And do you have a patch that will make PCI sound cards work? > > No. All alphas with built in sound cards have ISA cards.
