The madifx is my sound card. I have no idea what the fasteoi is though…(anyone 
?)
I have have 3 PCIe slots, one of them and the cars doesn’t show up at all, the 
other 2 both have the result above.
The last time a had to deal with IRQ’s directly was when is was trying to 
install a soundblaster in an 486… :-)
