Looks like a resource conflict. Can you manually select 220/5/1 in the advanced properties tab of the device?

The first problem, there is a unknown device.
The downloaded driver file has not information from this sound card.

I try this card with first DOS install, and had a strange problem:
When i install daughter board, then i lost OPL FM sound.
Without daughter card, and use onboard MIDI, then work everything with DOS (MIDI/FM/DIGI)

The card has no dedicated opl3 - it does opl3 thru the dream synth. My assumption is that with the daughterboard attached the dream synth is disabled and so is the opl3 then. I have the same card and can check if it behaves the same

i would guess the unknown device is the ide controller? maybe generic opti 82c924 drivers will work better?

i don't have this card, but i do have a crystal cs4232 with a dream cs9233 and an opti 82c924 with an admos qs700 so i'm not totally in the dark.

the sam9233 will play back wavetable midi over a generic roland mpu-401 device. fm will be routed to the sam9233 for both a dos compatibility device and a windows midi mapper device. the fm emulation is beyond awful so get it out of your mind that you will actually use it should this be the last piece to get working.

I have a couple of favorite games where midi doesn't work properly with this card.
For example the secret of monkey island.
Opl fm would be good there
