Still haven't found a solution. Anybody got any suggestions? 🙁

Hi everyone, So... this board is driving me absolutely crazy! I've never seen anything like it. Maybe someone out there has found a solution to this strange issue. It's a K8T800 socket 754 board with an Athlon 64 CPU (I actually tested two CPUs - a Venice 3000+ and when I downgraded the BIOS I went …

Update: The replacement card has arrived (fastest international delivery that I've ever witnessed until now, if I might add), and this one works perfectly (as one would expect). As I suspected, when running the "non-PNP detection wizard", the SB16 digital audio is also detected and Windows 98 sound …

Hello all, Thank you for the responses. Regarding initializing the card with Creative CTCM (95dosapp.exe), I should have been more specific that I tried it and it failed (which is why I actually also tried the Diagnose utility from the same package and I get the error mentioned in the first post). I …

Hi everyone, This is my first post on this forum, so bear with me :) I wonder if anyone can help me. I recently purchased a "working" and pretty expensive Sound Blaster 16 from eBay, however I can't seem to get it working. I should mention that this is the only SB16 that I have (and probably my …
