Hello.

Yesterday I bought Terry Pratchett's Discworld, "EURO" version on 
15 (!) 3.5" disks. 
Yet I can't fully enjoy this game because

* my (original) Soundblaster Pro doesn't produce any digi sound. 
  FM works. I tried several configurations of Discworld, minimalized
  config.sys/autoexec.bat, I even tried different jumper settings
  on my card for IRQ and DMA. Nothing helped. 
  I never encountered problems like this in other games.

* I can't save the game! After typing in my saving label the dialog box
  closes - and this is all. The game is not saved. My hard disk isn't
  even accessed!
  Needless to say that there are still dozends of Mbytes available on
  my drive.

I hope someone can help me.
Please reply via personal mail.

If I can't fix these problems I'm gonna give this game back to my local
dealer. *grmpf*

Bei der Arroganz der Raucher ist es eigentlich verwunderlich, dass
sie "nur" auf dem U-Bahnhof rauchen und (meistens) nicht im Zug.
