Following a disk controller hiccup, i've had to reinstall OS/2.  Previously
i had Promixer/2 running, and the CD-ROM working nicely with audio cds.
Now i have some problems.

Hware: 486dx2-66, 20 meg RAM, NEC CDR-84-1, PAStudio

The CD MMPM/2 application plays cds, but with *very* poor quality
reproduction and at a really high volume. If i fire up Promixer/2 and change
the vol, it goes down and the sound quality becomes okay. But, if i minimise
that app, or close it, the settings and quality slip completely (previously
i could make a change and it would stick). It's almost as if something
essential is being swapped out of memory.

I'm using the latest TMV1SCSI.ADD and MVPRODD.SYS, and the OSMIXER.DLL is in
the LIBPATH. What else needs to be done? Does anyone know what is happening?

Any help greatly appreciated. Please email replies to doug@citrus.uq.oz.au.

Thanks,
Doug

I'm having mail bounce, so I'll try posting.

It's terribly obvious (and perhaps too obvious), but did you try
reducing the master volume setting?  There should be a master volume
control applet in your Multimedia folder.  Give that a try.
