i built up from scratch an msi-5169 ver.2.1 AL9 with amd k6-2/300 tuned to 333. i have bought one no-name and one soundblaster 128-soundcard after the first did not produce sound at the cd-rom-port. although i doublechecked by using a second workingcd-rom-drive and cable(speakers and earphones work on a p60 on both soundcard and drive)i still do not hear any sound at the cd-rom. one friends means i need mainboard-driver. i use the standard ali-chipset-driver coming from winme. its type differsfrom the one onboard. i tried dma(no dma for the cd-rom). everything else seem to be ok. norton system works-checked.
who has good hints? michael
