What is FDMA in Win98?

[CrazyBee]

I was looking through the MS Tech site and looked for performance tweaks and stuff.

One thing I noticed was a mentioning of a sound card haveing sound problems that sounded like what people where having with their SB Live! On the Win98/SE CD in the Tools folder there is MTSUtil. And there is a reg hack to remove FDMA on the ISA bus.

Anyone have an idea?

FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access) is a cellular phone technique for breaking up the alloted cellular band into 30 channels. This technique is most common to analog cell phones in the US. It can be expanded by TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) techniques so that each of the original 30 channels is then expanded into 3 additional ones, tripling the amount of users that can be online at any given time... not sure how this applies to ISA periphials though. (???)
