Please log in for more thread options computer (Intel DG31PR motherboard, if it helps). It's a PCI card. It has behaved strangely under XP, so I installed Win98 expecting it to work. It didn't. Most of the crash messages were simply 'an exception 0E' or so, but one was more informative. It said that the PCI bus has some devices which are 32-bit, and some that are compatible (or was the driver named 'compatible'? I'm not sure). It said that this combination isn't supported. It reccomended to find a new driver for the device, but I didn't find any. Is there any other solution to make this combination supported, either under Win98 or XP? Will Vista solve it? Any other idea? Thanks a lot in advance. | |||||||||||||

Yep...I'd try the proper mfg's drivers and if they dodn't work...just get a new card. The idea of installing Vista just to get a $20 sound card working does not make sense to me. I'm sure everything would just get a lot worse anyway! | |||||||||||||
