This is for AWE64 Value.
This card has the 3D Stereo Enhancement thing. At least I think so because
I can use it in DOS & Windows.

Card Model CT4520

SB "dsp" chip: CT8920-NBQ

I dont't know if this is relevant but here goes.
EMU8000 chip: EMU8011-01, CT1972-GAS

This is what ISAPNP gives me.
Device 2 'CTL00e4:Creative SB AWE64  PnP' PnP version 1.0 Product version
1.0
  Logical device 0 'CTL0045:Audio'
  Logical device 1 'CTL7002:Game'
  Logical device 2 'CTL0022:WaveTable'

I was wondering if anyone knows if the SPDIF could be used with the Value
model AWE64. There is a place on the card for SPDIF. Maybe its disabled
with a jumper or something? Maybe I could solder the SPDIF connector to
the card myself.
