>> I look back fondly to kid years when I took shots in the dark with IRQ and DMA settings on my boot diskette

I look back on this fondly. I got some weird brand of soundcard that claimed SB-compatibility but was clearly different. I felt so proud the first time I got sound out of a game and no crashes. The same card was supported very well by Windows 95 a few years later.
