Check your Windoze documentation for details. I've also seen it included in SPEAK.EXE, a self-extracting LZH archive on Garbo and Wuarchive. I don't recall what directories though. When you find it, don't expect too much out of it. It's fine for playing noise and simple sounds, like the ones included in Windows, but voice samples mostly aren't worth your while. I never even bothered trying to play MIDI files over it. You'd probably be better off in the long run checking your local users group for a used SoundBlaster. On the other hand, the pc-speaker driver is free. Jason F. McBrayer
