  Stan,

     Without knowing exactly what your config.sys files looks like, I'd have
 to guess that you probably have an IRQ conflict.  Since you're getting 
 another error message about your soundblaster statement in your config.sys 
 file, that's the first place I'd look for a conflict.  You may find that if
 you fix what's wrong with the soundblaster statement you may just get lucky 
 and take care of the rest.

 ....Good Luck,

 ....Norm
