I am not sure what you are asking for here - to wit:

A) What kind of soundcard, which system is it in? Which OS are you asking about?
B) What configuration settings are in the autoexec.bat (if assuming DOS)
B) IRQ 6 isn’t commonly used. Why is it on 6 (if it’s even possible on 6)
C) DMA5 is a 16 bit DMA channel - also not that usual. Are you sure whatever program you are working with isn’t automatically requiring an 8 bit DMA to send commands? If it is, then assuming 1 or 3 for DRQ (DMA request)i is perfectly fine.

The messages are more confusing than they need to be.

Your sound card is configured as:

1A220 I5 D1 H5

That means you cannot use IRQ 5 or DMA channels 1 and 5 for your CD-ROM and you need to set the jumpers accordingly.

In your config.sys, you have:

1/P:300 A:0 /M:2 /T:1 /I:5

So it looks like /T corresponds to the DRQ, which is actually set by the DMA jumper on the card. When you set up the driver, you need to specify the value according to whatever the jumper is set to.

386 /soundblaster 16 is working
the cd rom drive is not there is no drive letter D:

cable

what are channels ?? the software dma i can choose is channel 1 or 3 < but on the card there is no channel just dma 5 6 and 7 so where is dma 1 or 3 ??
same for irq

Posting the same pictures over and over again isn't going to get you help any faster, you know. In fact, it just makes things more confusing. We don't have much more information than you do.

Your last image says:

1/P:300 A:0 /M:2 /T:3 /I:5

That suggests you are still specifying IRQ 5 in the Setup program, but like I said in the last message, your sound card is using IRQ 5 and the jumper on your card is set to IRQ 9.

Soundcard settings

some one said to me to use dma 3 and irq 10 but there is not dma 3 jumper setting on the cd rom card and also in the software i cannot choose irq 10 but the manual says there is
what am i missing here ?

Where is dma 3 on the card because i dont see it

,

Iam going to begin fresh wil post pics so you guys can see this is the intall programm

oke i found out iam installing the wrong drivers ,the controller card i have is the latest model and i need these drivers
if any one has these please share thanks to all the people that helpt me

MTMCDE.SYS

As listed above, you need to tell the driver which settings that you have configured on the card.

If the last pictures are accurate, you are jumpered to IRQ 10, and DMA 6.

THESE VALUES MUST MATCH WHAT YOU PUT IN THE SOFTWARE.

I think that this link has the newest drivers. You probably need them to allow Higher DMA channels.

the driver you link has no exe file
i removed the soundblaster drivers but now i dont know how to install them again
i have to move them to C: drive but dont know how cant remember how i did it

Those pictures look exactly the same as the ones you posted before. How is this supposed to help anyone? You are only making things confusing. Please slow down and take a minute to think about what you are posting.
