I have a Yamaha Sound card OPLymf715b-s. After installation it works fine. When I reboot, it is not seen. If I go to Add New Hardware, it finds it right away and works fine but I have to do this everytime I turn on the computer. There are no conflicts in Device Manager. I've tried putting it in a different slot. The auto detect is on. I tried another sound card and it did the same thing. I tried it in another computer and it works and holds it's settings fine. I even installed a modemand that works fine and keeps the settings after rebooting. Everything else works fine. Only the sound card is giving a problem. It doesn't matter, if its PCI or ISA. Pls. help.

if u have an on board sound card its possible that it could conflict.if so go into the bios and disable the legacy control.

if this doesnt help, sorry no more ideas at the moment.

not sure but if it were mine I would set it up and while it is working go to Device Manager and see what the resources are write these down...reboot and go into BIOS and tell bios it is NOT a plug and play os...go to PCI/ISA Configuration and set the appropriatte slot # for the resources you wrote down...forcing these on Windows..reboot. There are some other tricks if this does not work.
