     9This is fundamental to testing and also to raising a ticket.

     11To properly identify the exact hardware in your system, follow these simple steps:
     12
     13  1. Download Veit Kannegieser's ported and customized version of Craig Harts PCI/PCI32 tool, pci.exe from
     14[http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-browse.php?dir=/pub/os2/util/misc Hobbes], in the /pub/util/misc directory. Look for
     15a file named pciXXXvka.zip. Where XXX is the version number.
     16  2. Unzip the package in a directory of your choice.
     17  3. From a command line, run PCI.EXE.
     18  4. Page through the results, looking for references to "Audio Controller" or something similar (this should be highlighted in yellow).
     19  5. Note the two parts of the PCI ID: the vendor code and the device. These are normally expressed as vvvv:dddd, but appear in the pci.exe output as
     20{{{
     21Vendor vvvvh
     22Device ddddh
     23}}}
     24where the h represents "hexadecimal," and is understood when using the afrementioned vvvv:dddd notation.
     25  6. You should also note the name of the device which follows the code on the Device line. The name usually includes a reference to the codec (e.g., AC'97).
