The Uniaud version is: uniaud20031216.zip
The NIC is an IBM 10/100. Scanpci shows:
Intel Corp.
82557 PCI Fast Ethernet Controller
Network Card, Ethernet
IRQ line : 9 PCI INT pin : A
and
Creative Labs
EMU10000 Sound Blaster Live!
Multimedia device, audio
IRQ line : 9 PCI INT pin : A

With this combination, I get a trap 0008 with no module specified. Would
the trap info be of any use? I understand that a trap 0008 is a double
fault, a trap in the trap handler. Is this right?

One more bit of info... The end of the output from the PCI sniffer shows:
ROM PCI IRQ routing table Windows 9x Compatibility Tests....
ROM IRQ routing table found at F000h:DF10h
Table Version 1.0 - OK
Table size 0 bytes - Invalid Size!
IRQ's dedicated to PCI : None
The ROM PCI IRQ routing table appears to be faulty!!

Does this have any bearing on OS/2?

I think I found Veit's program: SPCIIRQ dated 3/21/02. Sparse
documentation. It looks like I have to install the SPCIIRQ driver with
parms that force the parameters for a particular card.

I will give it a try.
