Help,

I have recently purchased an Altec Lansing AMC 2800 multimedia unit with
8x CDR and ESS-688 sound card.

The unit is connected to an ACER 486 notebook via a PCMCIA slot, running
under WIN95.

Although the unit seems to run OK in WIN95, I am having all sorts of
trouble getting digital sound from the unit when running many DOS based
games (MIDI sound seems OK). Of particular interest is trying to run F22
Lightning, the SETUP routine of this game either results in no sound, a
continuous beep, or a hung system.

Can anyone comment on this problems or tell me about their experiences
with the same or similar unit.

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Humberto
