I have a system with a Super7SIS530 Baby-AT Mainboard with PCI Sound and Integrated AGP Graphics and I am having problems with the ALS300 onboard sound. Windows find the sound card fine. When prompted for the correct driver, I install the driver contained on the mainboard CD. It is dated Mar 99. After installing the sound driver, icons on my desktop turn purple/pink; when I try to use my dial up connection automatically through my browser, it connects but it can't findany servers, i.e. internet, mail; and the machine hangs up regularly at no consistent basis. I have reformatted the machine many times and reloaded from scratch many times with the same results. I narrowed it down to the sound card driver. I can disable the on board sound in the BIOS and it will load and function fine. As soon as I enable the sound card and load the driver, I start having the previous mentioned problems. I can then uninstall the device and driver and the problem remains. The only way around the problem is to disable the on board sound in the BIOS, reformat and load windows, and leave it disabled. If I do the latter, I then have no sound. I have been to the Avance Logic website, and I have the latest drivers available for the ALS300. Can you help me resolve the problem here? Thanks in advance,

Mike Mirich

It seems you have 2 ways to go.
If it was me (Im a computer technician)I would disable from the bios and buy another pci card.Your other recourse is to simply change the settings of your adapter and you can do this usually from your sotware.
