Hello Wayne,

I have also a sever problem with sound in my fresh install of LM 7.2 - I just 
have no sound whatsoever.
I tried to get into DiskDrake and my Sound Blaster 16 card is detected allright, 
but when I run the configuration tool it justs answers like you saw :
_initmodule : Device or ressource busy
Everything was working fine under LM 7.1 before...
What could be wrong ?
