[snipped Microsoft Knowledge Base article extract]

Following up my own post (don't tell the thought police :-):

I have the Sound Blaster problem mentioned in the MS KB article, but 
only under Windows NT and not under 3.11. My floppy disk drive also 
plays up under NT and not under 3.11. Sometime I will get around to 
disabling the printer port on my motherboard and using the one on my 
multi-function card to see if this cures these promlems.
