Hi,
i got a problem with my soundcard on an ASUS P2B board (BIOS Rev. 1008) with
Win95:
there seems to be no way to get any sound for DOS-games, especially
Wizardry7 (which needs so much memory that i don�t manage to run in a
DOS-window).
In Windows, everything�s just fine (the legacy device seems to work), but
when i start in dos-mode and try to load "aplegacy", i only get 3 (or 4)
error messages.
loading only "apinit.com", as in dosstart.bat, doesn�t help either.
Creative says something about a NMI-patch (non maskable interrupt) being
necessary especially for ASUS-boards, but at their site i can�t find
anything the like.
HELP! (and thanks a lot),      Benny
(please send your answer to me personally, as i sometimes can�t regularly
check the newsgroups)
