I recently upgraded from a Celeron 300A/440BX to an Athlon 800/VIA 82C686A. My ES1370 sound card worked fine with the Celeron, but does not work well at all in the Athlon system; it crackles a bit under light system load, and makes horrible slowed-down grinding noises if the CPU is very busy. The VIA board comes with an on-board AC97 code, which I tried, but turned off because it didn't seem to support any useful sample frequencies and was very noisy. I've seen a few posts from people having similar problems. I don't think I have any interrupt conflicts, at least not between simultaneously active devices. I've juggled the box's cards and BIOS settings quite a bit, but haven't been able to get better performance. Is this a problem with the VIA chipset support? Dmesg enclosed below. Thanks in advance if anyone has advice or wisdom for me. -nick Copyright (c) 1992-2001 The FreeBSD Project.
