I tried that.  That's what got me all the ppc0 and sio1 errors.



Sorry, missed that.  Record heat around here.  My only other
suggestion would involve a different sound card or possibly try a live
O/S disk to see if the hardware is good.
Where/how do I obtain one of those? All I have are the install discs 1 and 2 that I downloaded the iso images for, and all I can get from those is an "emergency holographic shell" that can't even find the ls command, let alone kldload ...
