 I have a I-A16C Audio card that has the Creative labs
 ViBRA 16C PnP Audio chip on it so its probably the same prob I had.
 for mine the two progs that were stuffing it up
 CTCM.EXE and CTCU.EXE

 CTCU is the major pain in the arse it wont run properly under OS/2.
 When I install the drivers to OS/2 the came up with the wrong IRQ
 eg:IRQ3 and I could not change it as the prog to change it was CTCU.EXE
 I was running HPFS so I could not boot DOS change drives and then run it?
 had me stumped for a while until I desided to cope the file CTPNP.cfg and
 there was another I think from my working DOS partition over the bodgy one's
 in the OS/2 partition. Rebooted and all was well. I hope you have same files
 good luck anyway and seeya.

 PS this is the file CTPNP.CFG
