After a week or so of experimenting, I finally got my SB Live! card working harmoniously with the rest of my system.
I bought the card over a year ago for $35 OEM. The included CD had Live!Ware...

Here's my system specs:
250 Watt ATX power supply and large mid-case
Tyan Trinity 400 S1854 mobo (VIA 694x+596B)
Intel CuMine 667 (running at 150 fsb=750)
128 MB Crucial PC-133 (7.5 ns, 2-2-2...

That's interesting, my vid card manual said to shoot for half the system RAM for the AGP aperture. Funny, though, that I have 128 MB of RAM, the aperture set to half of that, and it runs awesome. ...

Just be sure to avoid VIA chipsets. Looking at the sound and video forums, they are mentioned more than anything as the cause of problems. Why not mate the best CPU (the 750) with the best chipset...

Yep, ROMchip above has a great point. Intel's CPUs feature locked multipliers. In your case, it's 4. The only way you'll get the potential speed (533 MHz) from that CPU+BX mobo combo is if you...

I didn't make the board (I don't own one, either), so I couldn't tell you a whole lot about its tolerances. What I can tell you is that a friend of a friend has a 1.2 running at 1.466 on that very...

I just talked to a friend on the phone and he suggested I enable DOS support in the Device Manager for that modem. That, too, was ineffective. :(
-
That was a great suggestion NooToo, but it didn't work. I am connected right now at 26400 with that system. Any other ideas are welcome.

If you've found that ACPI is the interfering device, I'll need to know what type of BIOS you have (Award, Phoenix, AMI, etc) and, if possible, the motherboard type and chipset so you can disable it.

It's amazing to hear all of the problems that are out there with VIA chipsets and SB Live! cards (maybe it's the combo of VIA and AMD??). I have both (and I only spent $40 on the SB Live! Value) and...

How does the taskbar look down there in the lower right corner of the screen by the clock? If you have more than, say, 2 or 3 icons down there, then you need to disable most or all of those programs...

Allow me to butt in. If you have at least a 250W power supply inside that tower case, you should be fine, IF you decide to stay with Intel. Just be sure, as mentioned above, that the tower is an...

I'm going to start with the basics, because I have done this a hundred times, added a device and had problems that were not really problems.
First of all, make sure the speakers are powered on and...

Just remember, that ALi chipset is a DDR chipset. From what I have seen on various online hardware sites, the ALi Magik is a weak chipset as far as performance. The AMD 760 is a much better...

Yeah, the mobo has the AMD, Cyrix, and Intel logos on the box. I don't have an upgraded version, but a full OEM version. I was aware of the timing issue, but that only pertains to Win95, which has...

I guess I should've mentioned that the 64 MB is PC-100 compliant (2-3-2, 8ns). It's running under spec with the Pentium 200. The BIOS settings are set accordingly.

About two years ago, I rebuilt my grandfather's system. It's got a generic (Lucky-Star) Super7 motherboard with MVP3 chipset, 64 MB RAM, and only a Pentium 200 MMX (that was all he was willing to...

You're all right on about IBM. My personal preference is a toss-up between an IBM and a Maxtor. They both have a ton of industry experience and both are always innovating new storage technologies. ...

Just a thought...
The other day while I was waiting for Photoshop to save a rather large file (which I am almost accustomed to), I became very curious about RAID. I now have a very reliable Maxtor...

I just recently gave my old PC away. It had a Conexant controler-based PCI modem in it, which I put in my current system. By the way, the old dude was K6-3 450, VIA MVP3, 128 MB RAM, etc. I could...

Unfortunately, the SiS 530 is an integrated chipset, like SiS 630 and Intel 810 (among various others). With such a chipset, it is not possible to upgrade the graphics card since the graphics...

If you could, remove the cover from the PC and take a peek at the sound card itself. There's gonna be a lot of little chips on it, but the only one that matters is the largest one. What does it...

I guess my first question would be is this the original sound card or did you buy this one as an upgrade? If it's an upgrade, then start rummaging through the file cabinets and desk drawers looking...

All you need to do is take a quick peek at the chip that's soldered to the card. I have a similar card (with the same choices on the driver CD) and my chip says: Avance Logic, Inc. ALS4000 so I...

Is something wrong with the driver you are currently using?
