Audigy won't work with Soyo Dragon+?

[Hard_Boiled]

A fellow I work with is having a real hard time getting his new Audigy soundcard to work with his Soyo Drago+ Via266a mobo. After installing the drivers he gets an error message that says "invalid data for device". He says he tries to install the drivers off the cd,a nd it goes through the installation process but just doesnt work afterwards.

I'm just wondering if anybody out there is using a Soyo Dragon+ mobo, and using an Audigy soundcard or even a SB Live! card. He had problems getting his old Live card working in Win2K as well with this mobo.

What pci slot has he tried? For some reason the Dragon+ doesn't like slots 1-3 with Audigy/Live!...try slot 4 or 5...

I had problems with my Santa cruz, then I put it in slot 4 and everything is fine now.

I have a Soyo Dragon+ and Audigy, and they're both correct. I couldn't get it to work either, but when I switched PCI slots, it worked perfectly. 4+5 are the best slots for audigy in my experience.

That new Soyo Dragon Ultra looks really sexy.

Mine worked fine in slot 4
