Trying to get the onboard sound chip to work with a high dma channel. With another motherboard (a no-name I've long since gotten rid of, shame on me) I was able to get high dma, but on this oem Intel board i cannot.

I'd really like to use it, i remember the sound being fantastic in dos games.

For reference, I'm running win98se with kernelex (dosen't seem to make any difference with or without) and am trying to get games working in both real dos and windows dos box (my preference)

I'm currently using the intel drivers.

Any ideas?

Do you have other free slots to try it in? Also is it plugged into the last or next to last slot?

The YMF7x are SBPro so they don't have high dma.
