2 PCI slots, one of them is of course shared by the AGP video card on my shitty MoBo...
sharing the same IRQ with the soundcard. Cant change the IRQs in the bios as far as I can tell..Ive tried. Tried swapping the delta66 PCI with my adaptec 2940 and that just froze the system because then the drive is fighting with video.
anything I can do besides buy a new mobo? argh

I`m the last person to give advice on these sort of things but do you have any spare ISA slots in there Dave? Might be worth dropping the pci scsi card in favour of an ISA so you can have the delta on the decent pci slot. I use an ISA right here, cost about 15-20 quid and it works fine.
Course, if you`re running a scsi internal HD for audio recording the slower ISA buss might make that idea a bad one.

as for drives..Im under the impression that IDE work fine now, but I already own 2 scsi 7200rpm drives, one 4 gig and one 9. Why would I go buy new drives?
crap

I seem to remember folk here saying that an athlon/duron with an abit mobo or something is the way to go for DAWs on a budget but then I did buy this piece of crap so you`d do well to ignore any advice no matter how well intended.
