    Thumbs down SBLive Platinum - Intel 815 chipset conflict???

    I have the following problem with my soundcard(sblive platinum 5.1):
    when short restarting win98 (shift+restart) i get the following blue screen in dos:
    <Emu 10k1.vxd cannot be loaded>

    <IMG SRC="smilies/confused.gif" border="0">
    By pressing space bar win restarts but sblive doesn't work anymore It needs a full restart to work again.
    This happened first with a Gigabyte GA-6VXC7-4X motherboard with VIA694X chipset&370 socket,P III 700Mhz
    I bought another mobo, ABIT SA6, intel 815Chipset. Same problem! I said to myself that Abit drivers have a problem. I have changed with a Intel D815EEA2 mobo . Same problem again. I have moved the pci sblive on a BX chipset mobo - no problems at all.
    I have asked INTEL,Creative and Microsoft. No specific answers, only bull.
    i have tried anything: updating drivers, updating win98, eliminating sblive dos drivers, disabling sblive emulation, changing the card in different slots. Nothing
    My config is:
    Windows* 98 SE version 4.10 build 2222
    Intel D815EEA2 mobo
    BIOS version P12 (EA81520A.86A.0019.P12.0105091420)
    BIOS date 05/09/2001
    256Mb PQI RAM
    Echoaudio darla PCI soundcard
    SBLive platinum 5.1
    Onboard Intel video
    Onboard audio - disabled in bios
    ACPI disabled in BIOS
    USB Intellimouse Optical
    Quantum fireball AS Uata100 30gb hd
    Western digital protege Uata100 20GB hd

    You list both an Echoaudio sound card and the SB Live!, try removing the Echoaudio card (and its drivers). I believe the SB Live! prefers to work alone.
    Hope this helps, good luck. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

    Thanx zerotec
    I tried this too .i left the system with only processor, videocard and sblive. Same ****.
    I tried to change the videocard with a matrox g200 agp. the same!
    I tried to change the sblive pci card with another one, thinking it has a problem. The same.
    i don't know if you have seen: this hapened with 2 major brands of motherboards (ABIT and Intel) with 815 and with a VIA chipset gigabyte mobo (but the conflict between Via and Creative we know already)
    I think that there' a conflict between Creative's soft and intel chipset and ata drivers

    I think you are right, Nucu. I just can't find anything in these forum postings with a solution. I know that I read about it somewhere. Wish I could give you more help.
    Sorry. <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">
