What are the configuration problems?
Adding new hardware and software to your computer
requires ensuring that there are no conflicts with
your existing system. If you have difficulty with the
installation procedure or are unable to make the card
work, a conflict may be present. There are three
major configuration settings to consider: I/O Port
Address, Interrupt Request lines (IRQ), and Direct
Memory Access channels (DMA).
Even though the FM801 PCI sound card is a plug
and play card, the presence of other legacy cards can
still cause resource conflicts. To resolve such
conflicts, it is important to know the settings of
other cards (it is best to remove other sound cards)
and peripherals currently in your system, including
the mouse, fax-modem, video accelerators, etc.
Many peripherals come with setup software similar
to FM801 PCI sound card that lets you see and
change the current configuration. There are also
utility programs that investigate and report on the
configuration of your system and its peripherals. In
either event, make a record of the settings used by all
the peripherals in your system for reference when
installing new hardware and software or trouble
shooting problems.
Generally, you will only have a DMA conflict if your
system contains another sound card or an external
CD-ROM drive.
