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?

I had this problem and eventually I found some driver files on the Intel
site. They produce a motherboard with the PCI64V sound chip onboard. Have a
look at the Intel site or serch back in this news group about 2-3 months
ago. That's where I found the info. Unfortunately I cannot remember the
exact URL. However my PCI64V card now works under NT.

Rhiannon,

Does either card have jumpers to 'set' the IRQ; if so try various
combinations.

If NT indicates that the card is not in the system ... it may be so. Did
you use/download the right drivers ?

Note : NT is not really plug- and play(able).

Good luck !

Guy
