	It's very common that IDE interfaces on sound cards only work when assigned to the 
secondary IDE controller IRQ and address, i.e. IRQ15 and Addr. 170h.
	You need to change your sound card configuration and also the values on the sbide.sys 
device line on config.sys.
	Even if it won't work, it can always be the case that you have an old version of the 
sbide.sys driver. Old versions only worked on Sound Blaster's IDE controllers. In this case, 
check creative labs www.creaf.com and see if you can find a new version of the driver there.

	See ya!
