Hi,

Just try stuff out with your maui . Try to figure out if its default
mode is SB or emulates some other card.

>From your description, it is kind of hard to setup your card because
you need a bootloader to download a program to the card then to
kick off the program in the sound card. Try to figure as much as
you can from the dos or windows about its configuration , IRQ, DMA
type of emulation if any ...

	Cheers,
	Amancio
