PC Configuration
In most cases there is no need for any special tweak to your PC configuration for Soundscape PCI
audio cards to operate effectively. However, if you encounter problems, please consider the

The Soundscape PCI audio cards use Motorola Farmchips for their PCI to DSP interface. They rely
on a fully compliant PCI implementation with little or no tolerance for abnormal PCI
implementations.
