Thanks I did try CTCM.EXE but could not seem to figure how to change the port, I wasn't talking about the Serial/parallel port changes, I meant the IRQ PNP/ISA changes in the BIOS

That's for reserving IRQs for non-PnP cards, so that the system won't try assigning those to PnP cards. PnP OS I'm not quite sure about, it never seemed to make a difference for me. I guess it's better turned off for DOS.

You need CTCU.EXE to change the port in DOS, CTCM initializes the card.

I believe I'm covering this in the following video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2TWI1DUg74

Thanks for the link Mau1wurf1977 I'll check that out when I next get a chance

SUCCESS! Thanks for all your help guys, I have now managed to get my LAPC-I working! I just changed the MIDI port on my AWE64 in DOS using CTCU.EXE I changed it to port 300 and now as if my magic everything is working, I LOVE YOU ALL!!
