The Montego A3DXstream is based on the original Aureal Vortex chipset, which
is different than the newer Aureal Vortex 2 chipset used on the Montego II 
soundcard.  The two cards look almost exactly alike. 

To tell if you have a Montego A3DXstream, look at the large chip to the lower
right in the board shot above. This chip will have a large "A" (for Aureal) 
and a number beneath that. 

  -If the number says AU8820 then the card is a Montego A3DXstream.

  -If the number says AU8830 then the card is a Montego II. 

____________________________________________________________________________
 
Please do not try to install a Montego A3DXstream using Montego II drivers, 
or vice versa. This can cause problems and the soundcard will not work.
