Fuck me. Do you want me to call around and plug it in too ?

DM> device=d:\proaudio.new\mvsound.sys d:3 q:7 s:1,220,1,5 m:0 j:1 t:1

  d:x           x = PAS-16 DMA Channel
  q:x           x = PAS-16 IRQ
  s:x,ppp,d,q   x = Sound Blaster Emulation 1 = on 0 = off
              ppp = Port base address
                d = DMA channel
                q = IRQ
  m:x,ppp,q     x = MPU 401 Emulation 1 = on 0 = off
              ppp = Port Base address   [ default = 0x330 ]
                q = IRQ                 [ default = 0x2 ]
  j:x           x = Joystick port 1 = on 0 = off
  t:x           x = on-board Osc 1 =  on 0 = off
  v:xx         xx = Initial volume level

The noise is being caused by the t:x switch. Try it the other way.
On the kids machine their device driver load line is as follows.

device = mvsound.sys d:7 q:11 s:1,220,1,5 m:0 j:1 t:1 v:25

Yeah, but I've got all three on the same machine...Same drive too.
I had to back everything up though coz I needed to re-partition it.
The lucky part was that I actually got it all loaded back okay :)

Cheers, Brenton
