I'm also a newbie and sometimes known for extremes, so take my advice for
what it's worth...
I would use kexplorer and navigate to the /etc directory. Next I would
rename the isapnp.conf file to say isapnp.conf.backup. I would then rerun
sndconfig. Running sndconfig will create a new isapnp.conf file. If this
does the trick, all is well. If it doesn't work and you want to go with
your original isapnp.conf file again, just rename the backup.
HTH,
Matt
