Now as I recall, the old soundblasters used 2 IRQs? I'm not 100% sure, but
I remember something about that...it made it difficult to put 2 modems on a
machine.
I recall it being DMA 1, IRQ 7, and port 220h
Sound Blaster 16 needed two DMAs, maybe that's what you are thinking of?
I remember that too...I had a friend...he ran a BBS also, he showed me a
lot
of different things in DOS to get around IRQ limitations and such. He also
introduced me to Desqview and QEMM, because a BBS on 4 megs of RAM doesn't
run LORD and BRE very well, and DOS isn't a multitasker.
I remember hacking fossil drivers to get LORD to run right.
heh.
