Bill> I just added 128 MB of memory to my Dell Optiplex GX1, and now Bill> my sound card (on motherboard CS 4236) is no longer recognized. Bill> It's possible that I did something bad to the motherboard when Bill> inserting the memory cards. Or, is there any way that adding Bill> memory (now 128 + 128 + 64) could disable the sound? What do the boot logs say when you look at them after adding the memory? Any errors? It's possible that you did something bad, but as a first check, I'd just pull the extra memory and see if it comes back. If not, then you have other problems. Is the sound driver compliled as a module, or is it in the kernel? John
