Megahertz Combo cards again...




OK,
I have seen a few mail notes about what a nightmare it is to configure the 
Ethernet*Modem combo cards from Megahertz in a Windows 3.1/DOS environment. 
 I can now feel your pain.  I have found that non-ESS systems (ie-750, 360, 
755CX) are a snap to set up.  Set the LAN irq to 5 and away it goes. 
 However, all of the systems that use the ESS sound have irq 5 locked, and 
that is the problem.  I was reading through the documentation, and it states 
that BOTH the LAN and Modem irq's must be below 8 or above (???), and that 
is the source of the problem.  Has anyone had any sucess in setting up the 
combo cards on a 365X, or a 760EL?  I am still messing around with the 
IRQ's, but haven't gotten it working yet.  Has anyone summarized what they 
did to get it working?

If I can figure it out, I will post a How-To on it.

ps- Windows 95 has the settings of 5 for the ESS irq, and 15 for the LAN 
irq.  Hmmmm......
