I've (had) a big problem with the BIOS option "Peer concurrency" in
"Advanced Chipset Options menu". My hardware: 430HX dual Pentium Tyan Tomcat
mainboard and an AWE32 w/o PNP. If "Peer concurrency" is enabled as it is by
default, a mpg123 (16bit) hangs the machine immediatly after hitting the
return key. A play of some 8bit sound stuff is possible without problems. If
"Peer Concurrency" is diabled, _everything_ works great.

Perhaps disabling this option is a solution for some people here, too?

BTW: The same problem occurs when using Windows.

Regards

Carsten
