Your AMD dual-core is not 64 bit?

In my case, I have also an AMD dual-core (64) but I run 64Studio 32 bit
version.

Also, the fact that your soundcard shares an interrupts with other
devices is (I think... correct me someone if I'm wrong) less than ideal.

Is it possible to try another PCI slot, thus giving its own IRQ to your
Echo card?
