I seem to have aquired myself a bit a problem.  I have an SC-7 sound 
module.  I also have many games which have general midi support.  Problem 
is, I run my SC-7 through my serial port on my PC, and games just don't 
support general midi through the serial port.  I would hook the thing up 
through my Sound Blaster Pro, but I lost the midi connector cables 
somewhere.  Assuming I did find the cables, most games still don't 
support general midi through the sound blaster.   Hmmm...

Does ANYONE out there have any possible solutions to my dilemma?  Like 
some program which will redirect my com2 (sc-7) calls through some 
address port, to simulate a midi interface?   Or does someone have some 
SB Pro midi cables they are willing to sell me? And if you do have those 
SBPro midi cables, do you have some program which will make it work for 
games?  Or, better yet,  does someone have a simple midi interface card they 
could sell me?  Or does someone have ANY better ideas?  If yo are willing 
to stand up and face my challenge, please e-mail me at:

Thanks.
