Well, on the Microsoft Download Service (9600/2400/1200 baud, N81, 
206-637-9009, if you don't read your registration stuff carefully) they 
have the PC Speaker drivers.  Along with a bunch of other stuff, like the 
Tseng ET4k 256/32k/64k color drivers, S3 display drivers, the full Win 
Resource Kit (The docs expand to around 4.3 megs, so I'd still buy the 
thing for $20.)  I didn't pick up the Speaker drivers, as I have an SB 
Pro.  (BTW- Win 3.1 told me that I should get the SB Pro drivers, but 
they weren't on the Download service.  Thunderboard and Pro Audio 
Spectrum drivers were, though.)  Anyway, there is a lot of stuff there.  
God, I love being a local call to Microsoft.  Anyway, I can make some of 
the stuff available eventually, if Microsoft has no objections...
