In my last post I said I might have to start from scratch well that's what I did , freed
up every resorce I could including the ports
and put the cards in one at a time testing at every step well locked on the second card
the Monster 300mx sound card loves resorces
so for ha ha's I removed it from the device
manager and low and behold no more lock ups
so for now I retro fitted it, good old
sound blaster 64 aew,No more lock ups
moving on with the rest of the install and
set up thanks to all who replied and to FLOPPYMAN who got me thinking so some rainy
saturday when I feel like messin around I'll
see if I can get around the 300mx problems and use it.

Yes You Did all of you and yeah I took the
easy way out for now but I'm gonna miss that
aureal 3D sound so I'll have to tackle that
see if there's been a notice or another update to the drivers, seems it was the sound
blaster pro emulation sucking up an extra irq
and it wouldn't let me change it. Funny it
never did that in my DFI SS7 motherboard

THANX Zneter

Cool

did you ever try switching cards around....move your montster card around....that might keep it from sharing the same IRQ that your videocard has....

I've herd of that but just never gave it much
credit, figured if I freed up everything it would take the irq it needed and nothing more
BIG mistake but I'll give that a try
