Welcom Dre5701,

Please start by telling how you are running KNOPPIX.

By CD boot?
What is the date version or your KNOPPIX CD?

Specify your mother board. Is it an onboard via sound
chip, have you added a second sound card?

Check your BIOS and see what it says about you
sound setting.

What is the exact message and when does it appear?

Best Wishes
