Sound help

Post by DarkWarriorXII »

Hey all. I'm new here (as you can see), and I downloaded the Soundblaster tool and some DOS prompt tool for XP, and I still have no sound for my DOS games (soundblaster I think). How do I get sound? :suspicious:

Thanks,

DW

If you mean VDMSound, if you haven't already done so either:
a- Run the Game with "Run with VDMS"
b- Open a DOS Prompt and type 'dosdrv' before running your game
c- Create a Batch File similar to the following:

Code: Select all

dosdrv
file0001*
* Replace file0001 with the game's main executable.
