You are welcome.  Yes the installation of the Innotek packages disabled 
sound if the card was a Cirrus/Crystal one.

and CS4630 chipsets, because of availability, the nice quality and also
because of the featured Waveblaster connector so I could add my Yamaha MIDI
wavetable daughterboard. Unfortunately I only get the daughterboard going
on ISA soundcards. The latest Crystal PCI drivers did better on the AW320
than on those beautiful Terratec cards. Every wav sound is preceded by a
'pop' and (opl-FM) MIDI by hissing and dropping of notes. Horrible!

I presume that you mean version 3.11, when you write about the latest 
Crystal PCI drivers.

Please let us know the results.

Thanks for the link on the latest version of Z!, as I have to get it as 
well as the latest PM123.
