Re: SoundBlaster 16 PnP and AWE32 DMA conflicts

Running in DOS. There is a VLB video card present only and nothing else, but the motherboard has onboard controllers for IDE, COM, LPT, and GAME ports. Wait... you just said the motherboard has an onboard gameport? Does it also have onboard sound? Make sure that's disabled in the BIOS under …
