2879.12homework completeSSDEVO::ASTORSubsystems Engineering SupportFri Jan 24 1997 16:008
    Bill,
    
      I completed my homework last night.  The EIDE chipset appears to be
    a UMC 8673.  There were no EIDE drivers that came with the motherboard.
    
    Thanks for the ideas,

2879.13things that make you go HmmmSSDEVO::ASTORSubsystems Engineering SupportFri Jan 24 1997 16:1426
    Mark,
    
      The motherboard is supposed to be plug and pray.  It says that it has 
    AMI BIOS plug and play extension 1.0A when the thing powers up.  Last
    night while doing the homework Bill gave me, I ran into a intersting
    problem, that I solved with some trouble.  Band aid tm may be a better
    word for it than solve.
    
    My son is 3 and has a program called preschool jump start.  It wouldnt
    work after I attempted to re-install the game.  The Chief has a
    tendancy to inadvertenly adjust parameters you know... so
    re-installations of his games are rather common.  I realized that it
    hadnt worked since the time I last tried to install the sound card
    software.  I removed all the sound card software and finaly had to
    remove the MIDI MAPPER to get all the stuff working again.  I later
    remembered that I had to do this before.  The error the game gave me 
    was something about MIDI, so I ended up there.
    
      Anyone have a non Plug and pray sound card for sale?  I am still
    wondering if there is something else wrong.
    
    Thank you all for the help,
    
    Kurt
