| | 9 | This is fundamental to testing and also to raising a ticket. |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | To 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 |
| | 15 | a 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 | {{{ |
| | 21 | Vendor vvvvh |
| | 22 | Device ddddh |
| | 23 | }}} |
| | 24 | where 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). |
