fsm - you have not helped the askers of the question at all by hijacking
their message. Test messages belong in appropriate test groups (in
Demon, demon.test, and I'm sure there are other similar groups).

Kate and Andrew - you need to have the appropriate driver(s) in
autoexec.bat (probably line will start SET BLASTER= followed by various
parameters). Check your manual for details. Ask again if you need help
with how to enter the line(s) needed if you can't find a way of doing
this automatically using the set up program. You are probably right -
you may have to install more memory.

Have you tried running the software from a dos prompt from within
Windows 95? This ought to solve the driver problem, but you may still
have the memory one. (I'm assuming at the moment you are trying dos mode
from boot up - apologies if I have misunderstood).
