Whilst trying to get the soundcard to work I've tried many different settings
for my bios but currently it stands as:

Installed O/S [Win95/Win98-Win2000/Other]     =    Other

On board Device Configuration:
    USB Device [Enable/Disable]        =    Enable

    Audio Device [Enable/Disable]      =    Enable
    Sound Blaster [Enable/Disable]      =    Disable
    MPU-401 [Enable/Disable]            =    Disable
    FM Port [Enable/Disable]              =    Enable

Also you might find my boot.log file interesting as uart401 appears very often
in my configuartion set up but I don't actually set it.

all of it means.
