PCI cards support under DOS

Hello everybody,

does anyone know if SiS or VIA-based
motherboards are capable of recognizing
PCI cards (like the SB Live!) under DOS?
I know for sure that nForce2-based
mainboards are not, since my Asus A7N8X
does not "see" the SB PCI card when
I boot under DOS, while my previous
mainboard, Abit BE6-II (BX chipset) did.

I would like to keep on playing my old,
favorite DOS games with their sound!

Thanx a lot

1. This is not highly technical. Try asking in Operating Systems.
2. Your motherboard doesn't really know what operating system you're running. In all likelihood, it's actually DOS that can't see your SB PCI, because you don't have a DOS driver for it.
