subject: SoundBlaster AWE64 not working

Ok folks, what did I do wrong?
 
I D/Led the Beta drivers from Creative Labs, installed MMPM/2 w/ the 
AWE32 driver. Rebooted, and got the message the card wasn't working. 
No prob. Expected. Now I run the install for the beta drivers, no go. 
Ok.. add /G to the command line. Now it doesn't see the card period. 
Ok, rewrite the config.sys line to as follows:
device=c:\sbos2\sbawed2.sys /c:1 /d:1 /h:5 /i:5 /A:220 /b:8 /m:330 
/n:SBAUD1$ /P /G
 
Ok. Now the config.sys boots w/o a hitch. Says configuring PnP card 
with config.sys settings, lists the above settings (MPU 330, address 
220, IRQ 5, 8k buffer, ect..)
Now when I go into the system, the SB card is listed in the hw 
manager, but it won't give me any sounds, and the SB control pannels 
say unable to open AWE32 physical device driver. Double clicking on 
sounds doesn't open the sound. Nothing happens.
 
What did I do wrong?
