disable this part of it

This system has been problematic with everything I have put into it.  I
don't think the hardware in it is terribly compatible with each other.  But
I haven't quite put my finger on why just yet.  I have a separate IDE
interface from the one on the Sound Blaster card.  I don't even understand
why the audio card has an IDE interface.  I think most every hardware
resource is consumed, and other than the IDE "conflict" I don't see any
conflicts.  The IDE interface on the Sound Blaster is disabled in my Win98
setup which is how I get by with that (I think).
