Installing a Sound Board

Cable
Installing Memory, the Avid Board Set, and the Fan Kit
Unlike the IBM 6866 system, the IBM 6868 system does not have the
MIDI function built in. You must add a sound board to PCI slot 4 of
the system and install the appropriate software driver (see "Installing
the Driver for the Sound Board" on page 7-13).
The sound board can only be installed in PCI slot 4. If you have another board
installed in PCI slot 4 (as explained in "Avid Xpress Board
Configurations" on page 4-5), you cannot install the sound board.
Avid has tested and supports the following sound boards for use with
the Avid Xpress system on the IBM 6868 system:
™
• Turtle Beach Montego II
• Diamond Sonic Impact S90
• Diamond Sonic Impact S100
When you install the sound board in PCI slot 4, you must be careful
with the cable shown in Figure 4-11. The cable is used for CD-ROM
audio and has nothing to do with the sound board. Figure 4-1 also
shows the CD-ROM audio connector.
