The kernel spouts something | about not being able to find an awe32... so it may work for that. Reboot your computer and at the 'boot: 'prompt type '-c' then once you're in Configuration mode type the following exactly. pnp 1 2 os enable port0 0x620 port1 0xa20 port2 0xe20 quit That should enable the AWE support. If your soundcard wasn't recognized in the first place then also include the following command before quitting. pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 irq0 <a> drq0 1 drq1 5 where <a> is the IRQ you wish to use. Make sure it's not conflicting with anything else. I use IRQ 5 so my line was; pnp 1 0 os enable port0 0x220 port1 0x330 port2 0x388 irq0 5 drq0 1 drq1 5 and this is the result from dmesg: sb0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 on isa snd0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.16> sbxvi0 at ? drq 5 on isa snd0: <SoundBlaster 16 4.16> sbmidi0 at 0x330 on isa snd0: <SoundBlaster MPU-401> opl0 at 0x388 on isa snd0: <Yamaha OPL3 FM> awe0 at 0x620 on isa awe0: <SoundBlaster EMU8000 MIDI (RAM512k)> Good luck. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dennis Tenn * There will always come a time dstenn@fanfic.org * When your love will be tested * Stand tall and rise to the occasion * For only then will you grow strong. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
