You have TWO sound cards plugged into your computer?  !!!
They may be hogging most of the available irq's....  Choose one, remove
the other.

Each periperhal card (sound, net, etc.) will have one or more 'default'
irs's and base addresses.
Write them down on a sheet of paper and compare them to see which ones
are attempting to use the same irq - base address.  Assign each card to
a unique set of irqs and base addresses.  Reset any card jumpers to
match your assignments, if possible.
Scsi cards also need port settings to be unique.

NT 5 beta 2, eh?  Talk about working in dreamland...

Say, while your are at it, I have the Calculus III textbook that you can
use do do some introductory diffi-q stuff.  What?  You haven't studied
Calculus I and II?  (get my point?)
