hi there I'd be interested in seeing your isapnp.conf I have problems here
with an ethernet nic conflicting with my doubletalk synth.
the nic wants to use io ports 0x280-0x29f but if I even try to configure
that in to my isapnp.conf file the machine dies and I have to reboot thus
loosing my configurations..
Shaun..
PS: Please send the attatchmends directly to shauno at goanna.net.au if
possible.
