I have just received the evaluation edition of Multimedia Toolbook
(no manuals; 6 hour limit in author mode).  In trying to play .WAV
files, I always get the "no driver installed" message.  Then, when
I get into the Windows Drivers configuration, I see that the "MIDI
Mapper" is selected.  I change back to the speaker driver (speaker.drv)
I've installed (drives the PC's speaker; the PC doesn't speak
multimedia yet) and try it again.  Evidently, for some perverse reason,
Toolbook insists on the incorrect driver.  I have no trouble playing
.WAV files via several different Windows methods; they all work just
fine.  I'm running Win 3.1 on an EISA Zenith 486/25, 8 meg ram.

Anybody have a clue?

thanks for any ideas
