INSTRUCTIONS ON RESOLVING SOUND CARD CONFLICTS
WHEN PARALLEL PORT CHANGED TO 0278-027F ADDRESS
RANGE

Question:

I have installed the Lava Parallel PCI card
into my computer with Windows 9x and it installed
perfectly fine. I then noticed from your
documentation that the non-printer device that
I was attaching to the Lava Parallel PCI card
needed the 0278 - 027F address range. So I went
to Device Manager and adjusted the Lava Parallel
PCI to that address range. After I did that my
sound card had problems! What should I do?

Answer:

When setting our card to the 0278 - 027F address
range sometimes it knocks out various sound cards.
The solution to the problem varies according
to which device you are attaching to our card.
The following is list of various solutions.

Scanners and SyQuest external drives

a) Remove your OnBoard Parallel Port(LPT1) and
the Lava Parallel PCI from Device Manager.

b) Shut down your computer normally, restart
and enter your BIOS setup.

c) Change your OnBoard Parallel Port from
0378 to 0278.

d) Save your changes and enter Win9x. Let Win9x
reinstall your OnBoard Parallel Port and the
Lava Card.

e) Change the Lava Parallel PCI  to 0378 - 037F.

f) Add the following to the Adapter Settings
for the SparQ in Device Manager (go to SCSI
adapters and double-click the Syquest Parallel
Port Interface and enter the Settings tab) if
you have a SyQuest SPARQ:

  /di 

If you are installing a scanner then run the
configuration again.


IOMega ZIP drive

a) Go to Device Manager and enter the
Properties for the Lava Parallel PCI. In the
resources tab change the address to
0288 - 028F. (This address does not interfere
with the sound card.)

b) Reboot Win9x and run Guest95 for the Zip
and it will find the drive.
