SB AWE Vs Soyo mobo- No sound at all! please help

[Mad]

Im having problems to get this sound card working.
first let me tell you what my system config is:
k6-2 500
128Mb
13Gb seagate
Voodoo 3 3000 16Mb
(Crappy) Aztech sound galaxy...
2 USR modem 56k (one hardware and winmodem)
Win98se
Soyo SY-5ehm v1.2
Via chipset VIA Apollo MVP3/VP3 , Rev. $04
Well, it install all ok, but then after the reboot, it doesnt play anything
the least i could get was a noise every 6 or 7 secs
could it be due the drivers of my old aztech card, or VIA chipset??
its not the first AWE card i try, allways woth the same problem

Thankz for the help

maybe I'm mistaken, but are u trying to install a new soundcard on your mobo? If yes, do you have an integrated audio device on your mobo?

[Rargh]

oups, sorry.
forget what I said :p
Try to disable your old integrated sound card in the bios.
It may cause IRQ problems.

Hope that helps.

my old aztech is ISA, as the AWE
but thankz for trying to help

I've got this:

k6-2 400, 128Mb, Tnt2, ISA AWE64, and other stuff
Win98fe, Soyo SY-5ehm ... was it version 2 ? don't know anymore...

It works without problems here...

1) Did you install the latest '4-in-1 drivers' for the Soyo motherboard ? It hangs your system after a while if you don't install them
2) Did you check if there weren't any IRQ problems in the Configuration panel ?
3) if 1 and 2 are ok, you could try to reinstall it, but first try it with your VGA card and your AWE sound card only. See if that works. If it does, add the other cards.

Hope it helped...
