<DIV>Thanks for the reply. I went ahead and tried shutting down all of the modules that I could. I ended up with the following list:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>mousedev 5620 1</DIV>
<DIV>usbcore 81152 1</DIV>
<DIV>input 5856 0 (autoclean) [mousedev]</DIV>
<DIV>ext3 7344 2</DIV>
<DIV>jbd 54228 2 [ext3]</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I then attempted to start up alsa with the "alsasound start" command and I recieved the following errors:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Starting sound driver snd-emu10k1</DIV>
<DIV>/lib/modules/2.4.22-9.23rc3.ll.rhfc1.ccrma/kernel/sound/snd-emu10k1.o: Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg</DIV>
<DIV>init_module: No such device</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I completely wiped my drive and reinstalled everything and I am still getting the same problems. I am not really sure what I could be missing...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for the help.</DIV>
