Same thing with the Roland Sound Canvas.  Just set the game or app
using it to port 330, no drivers needed.  (You need to tell win95 that
the card is there though, by using the normal MPU401 driver so it wont
use FM synthesis for win95 based programs that dont allow independent
port configuration).
