I kept screwing around with "cleverness" and then took Junaid's advice and did it the old fashioned way.
Listening to STEPPE 5 last night to get a baseline and tonight I will go further.
Yes, I do think the implementation of I2S you were using was dicey.
I am intrigued by "losing" CONTROLLER. I guess I could give it a try but if Greg has already done the experiment ... I am a little shy of experimentation at the moment!
I wonder if SOUND requires setupapi.dll? If not, and doing without CONTROLLER works, then it would be good to be able to delete setupapi.dll.
I am assuming you had to put that one back, too, to get your system to work?
Let me know.

What Controller are you talking about?

I have put setupapi back in yes. I have left Sound and wdmaud.drv out. But wmdaud.sys is in. I believe it sounds better with this combination ims.
So u made a fresh installation of xp, made all optimisations as per cics website, & implemented the batch files getting to steppe 5 ?? I hope u went in this order :-
1. Optimised cMP
2. Steppe2
3. Steppe 3
4. Steppe 4
5. Jolida1
6. Jolida 2
7. Steppe 5...
Is that right ??
Junaid
do you think it would make any difference?
I finally made an image of the cMP Optimized WINDOWS! I will make another of this STEPPE 5 version tonight before going further.
First I deleted the folders you have in Step 1!
Seems to me as long as deletions and registry changes are close to each other it would not make much difference.
Consider xmiprovi which you deleted early on and STEPPE delete almost at the end of his published recommendations AND looking at the files deleted with Serge's and your recommendations compared to BOLD FORTUNE who recommends deleting many of these same files all at once.
Just curious why you think the order, at the beginning, has importance. Towards the end I would tend to agree there is some merit. Just an instinctual assumption. I have no real idea one way or the other!
How far have you proceeded with BF? Have you deleted further files after STEPPE 5?
THANKS!
Well well... I'm in a moment of shock at the moment. Did something that made me realise how deceiving a human notion can get. If I post it here, it would raise a debate, because it's way beyond our expectation. But it's an eye-opener & a wake up call that displays a message that reads " My friend, u r a human, & u r bound to get carried away"...
I know what I've written above would puzzle u as well as others who read this post. But it's about time we get to reality.
In the meantime, I suggest u stick on to step 5, as u already have. I will keep u posted !!
Junaid
I hope I did not say something offensive.
I cannot tell if you are having fun or being serious OR not really responding to my post at all O R have come across something close to "mind-blowing".
Talk about cryptic!
I will try to patiently wait for the explanation.
In the meantime I will make an image of FIVE and play with BF tonight.
Do tell.
