End user's system is not recognizing drivers for Opti 933 sound card on a Windows 98 2nd Ed. PC. Drivers *are* installed but are not recognized by the PC.

1. Are the chip-set drivers installed?
The default Windows drivers for MANY chip-sets do not work very well.
This driver is VERY important if it is an ISA sound card.

2. Is DirectX installed?
Make sure that you do not install a version of DirectX that is NOT supported by the video driver.

3. Try the card in a different slot.

4. Check device manager for conflicts, and remove any multi-media or multi-function adapter with a yellow "!" or "?" mark.

For the Opti drivers to work correctly you need to run the installation software as opposed to just having an inf file that the OS reads from.

Already ran the installation software, if you could call it that.
:-) Already found the answer to my problem though.
Thanks anyway!
