Hi
I think I may have the same card. (or similar) The sb emulation is only 8
bits. almost all cards which emulate sb only work in 8 bits. You need to
use the mss. Try using the sgalaxy driver, it works great for me. I use :
modprobe sgalaxy io=0x530 irq=7 sgbase=0x220 dma=1 dma2=0
Look at your autoexec.bat file, it will probably set galaxy= something.
