On my system the BIOS (Award) offers the possibility select whether there 
are PNP-OS'es installed or not and all IRQs can be set manually if 
needed. But since you have XP installed it may be better use the Plug 'n 
Pray method (I'm not familiar with Bills latest inventions so I can't 
tell what happens if XP can't get the PNP info from BIOS, probably it 
freaks out and will blow up, burn your computer, your house, all of the 
neighborhood, gas stations nearby explode, etc. etc. ).

So you'll just have to do some experimenting, you could start by letting 
the BIOS be as it is now and check isapnptools and it's documentation. 
pnpdump should give you the info you need to set up the sound card 
correctly. You didn't mention what version of Mandrake you have (or I 
missed it) so I suggest downloading the latest version of isapnptools and 
maybe XMMS too and all the related stuff.

Cheers,
J.
