I have a Creative Soundblaster AudioPCI 64V.  NT doesn`t
detect it on booting, and when I try and install the drivers
using the NT Install Wizard it copies the files over and
then tells me the card is not found on this system.  

I`ve tried reseating the card, but it hasn`t made any
difference.  I`ve activated Plug and Play in the BIOS.  The
only other thing is that both the sound card and my graphics
card seem to be taking IRQ 9.  Is this important, and if so
where can I change it?  And what else can I do?

"Yes!" everybody chorused.  But I refrained.
