The default settings for the ThinkPad 755 is I/O address 0030-003F, IRQ 10,
with DMA channel 0 for playback and DMA 1 for capture.

The I/O space is selectable to 4E30,8E30,CE30.

The IRQ can be set to IRQ 5, IRQ11, and IRQ 15.

Unfortunately, you'll find that the audio is incompatible with most DOS based
games.


Has anyone every gotten DOOM to work on a ThinkPad ??? :)
