Has Homer SImpson would say..."Please...Please...Please!!!" I am running DR DOS 6 (and patch) with 10 meg memory on a 386 with SSTOR drive. Links (not 386) doesnt want to run with any of the sound options turned on. The sounds is all garbled then it crashes upon attempting to speak? I have similar/identical problems with Hardball3. Can someone help me with the (D)config.sys and config.sys files Obviously the only real line in there would be the EMM386.SYS so what parameters work for you? Thanks.

P.S. I think my son had Links (non-386) running on the SSTORed D
partition of my 2MB 386DX (HP Vectra QS/16). I will ask him for
details.

Perhaps your problem does not have anything to do with DR DOS 6.0 or its EMM386.SYS or SuperSTOR: You do not mention which soundcard, if any, you use, but this weekend I found that I got a scenario similar to yours (i.e. a system hang after a short sound when trying a stroke) *if* - I do *not* have a links.cfg file, *and* - I use the *default* configuration for my Soundblaster (i.e. the default hardware configuration for the card itself and the default SB configuration for Links (non-386)). If I do have a links.cfg file, configured for the default SB configuration, then I get a system hang after a very short part of the intro music. Reason: The default hardware configuration for the SB, as set by the factory, uses interrupt number 7 (IRQ7), but Links uses *another* default (forgot which, I think 3). You can change the interrupt number that Links uses with the "SELECT SOUND BLASTER INTERUPT NUMBER" [sic] menu of the SETBLAST program. Select choice 4, IRQ7. If this does not help, then first try with Links set to use the PC speaker and let us know the results. If you have a SB, then you can also configure Links for Adlib mode. In Adlib mode the IRQ setting is apparently not relevant. > Obviously the only real line in there would be the EMM386.SYS so > what parameters work for you? For my 2MB 386DX (HP Vectra QS/16) with DRDOS 6.0 and SSTORed D partition : DEVICE=C:\DRDOS\EMM386.SYS /F=AUTO /K=AUTO /B=FFFF /R=AUTO With this configuration Links defaults to use expanded memory. Hope this helps. Frank Slootweg
