IRQ - Can't get a good one!!!

[paulcs]

As a matter of routine, after a Windows reinstall, but before I install the soundcard drivers, I disable some stuff I won't be using immediately: USB, Com ports, etc. I then install the soundcard drivers, disable Soundblaster emulation in Windows and DOS, and re-enable USB and a Com port.

SB emulation is more of a pain than it worth, particularly if you don't play DOS games.
