This is the first system in question:

A7V REV. 1.05
Thunderbird 1Ghz CPU
V770 ultra (TNT2 unltra) video card set to 4x
512 mb Micron PC133 sdram
Netgear 310TX PCI network card
Soundblaster Live Value Sound Card
Maxtor ata100 40 Gb HD on Primary ata100 IDE channel
Kenwood 72x true CD rom Primary ata66 IDE channel (Master)
Sony Supressa 4x CD-R/RW Secondary ata66 IDE channel (Master)
Iomega 100mb ZIP Drive Secondary ata66 IDE channel (Slave)
Windows 98se


When I first put all this together I loaded the drivers for the sound card
and it worked fine.
Then I tried to reboot the system and I got a message "Which Boot device?"
followed by a list of everything but
the hard drive on the promise controller. I changed PCI slots from 2 to 3
and it would get to the windows splash
screen and lock-up. I moved it to PCI slot 4 with the same result. I know
VIA chipsets have a problem with creative
sound cards so I made sure I installed the 4 in 1 drivers.

I alos tried to put a Turtle Beach Montego II quadzilla sound card in in
place of the SB live value. It also works great
until I reboot. This does do someting else though; It tries to load
"gameport joystick" and "Montego joysick port"

This system works fine as long as I leave the sound card out!


Any Suggestions??


Thanks,

Gary Bowman
