Hello 😊

I have the following set:

Pentium 233 mmx

256 mb of the frame

PCCHIPS M537 VXPro motherboard

S3 Virge dx

CDRW

The SB AWE 32 CT3900 music card

SB AWE does not detect me. I downloaded the drivers from the creativa site under win98 and nothing.

I also added nothing by hand. Under the care of me, I started the diagnosis and nothing.

I set the jumper to other isa ports. Without results.

The card has some rust, I do not know if it has any connection.

I'm sending photos.

Is a nice sound card! Yup, he's right, you have to assign an IRQ to the sound card in BIOS. Probably , u can try assign any unused IRQs like LPT1 or LPT2 . You can try to clean the gold finger of the sound card with eraser as well 😀 😀
