i would have thought that this was susceptible to the same kind of
solution that Ico used to solve a similar problem with the RME HDSP
pcmcia card. rather than hack the driver, use setpci and its cousins to
investigate and modify the state of the PCI device registers. you will
need to find out how to get the state in windows before and after that
utility runs, and then take the information on what it changed and apply
it to setpci.
