SB AWE 32 and io-audio

Greetings. Trying to get my SB AWE32 to work. It worked in 6.0C with
partition install, but I’m not getting it to work in 6.1.0A in a Windows
install. Not seeing any mention of it in pci -vvv, so I’m assuming this
means the card is most likely ISA/PnP. I hadn’t changed any settings in my
BIOS between the card working in 6.0, putting a new harddrive in and
installing 6.1 (at least, not relevant to peripherals). IRQ 5, IO range
0220-022F, DMA 3 and DMA 7. I didn’t see an option about disabling PnP
detection in my BIOS - but again, this worked just 3wks earlier with a
regular partition install. That, and the included docs for io-audio are,
hm, lacking. For instance, listing sblive but not sb in the list of shared
libraries, while sb is, in fact, included. Haven’t gotten it to work with
sb, sblive, audiopci (or whatever it was), etc. Yes, it is a true, 100% SB
AWE32.
I’ve looked on qdn.qnx.com and searched newuser and installation groups
here. I slay io-audio first and keep trying. -v outputs no information
with io-audio. I try io-audio -dsb irq=5,ioport=0220,dma=3,dma1=7 & but no
go (even if I leave out the dma1). Any assistance, folks? Thanks.

Hi Charles,

Is Plug and Play aware OS turned off in the BIOS?

I know this is the first thing which gets asked. I included it in my
original post:
… I didn’t see an option about disabling PnP detection in my BIOS - but
again, this worked just 3wks earlier with a regular partition install.
Granted I’m not a hardware wizard - far from it. I’m somewhat familiar
with my BIOS, though. Similar, but newer BIOS in another computer has this
option, but in the same location in my BIOS, I see nothing. This worked
fine in a full-partition install before. shrugs Thanks.
