I have a Gravis UltrasoundMax which I bought about two years ago which I
can't get to work with WIN95.  I originally had it installed with Win 3.11
and had it working (after a fight).  Then I switched over to WIN95. BOOM! 
Now it refuses to work. I've tried everything.  I have all the latest 
installation software and WIN95 drivers from Gravis and I've tried 
installing it on three different computers (all with WIN95). It works fine 
under DOS (free of windows) but when I try to boot up windows and install 
the drivers, the system hangs. I have followed the installation guidelines 
to the letter and have tried every combination of IRQ's, etc. Tech support 
is useless (surprise!) My only guess is that the soundcard doesn't like 
the fact that our computers are networked. Unless somebody has a magical 
answer to solve this problem, I'm going to give up and look for a different 
card. In that case, can anyone tell me what they think of SoundBlaster's 
AWE32? Any problems? How does it sound? I'd love to hear from anyone who has 
had any experiences with either of these products.

Thanks,
Kyle
