I can't seem to get any sound effects out of my ATI stereo F/X. I can get the doom theme music to play, but no good bang-bang noises. I've checked the stupid stuff. (volume, interrupts, etc). Anyone have a problem like this? the ATI is (in theory) soundblaster compatible.

Well, I have an actual, true-blue SoundBlaster card, and I have the same
problem. I only get the music, no sound effects (unless I use the pc
speaker). :( The setup program was absolutely no help at all. Is it a
bug, or am I missing something (I saw a previous reference to SFX.EXE?
I don't have that program. Should I, or is that ATI specific?)

Try different IRQ channels. It worked for me on another game (Comanche)

No, I don't want to do that. My sound card works fine with Windows and
other games, and if I start screwing with the IRQs now, I'll end up having a
conflict with everything else. Since the card works with other games
such as Castle Wolfenstien and Blake Stone, it seems to me there is a
problem with Doom.

Well, I just downloaded doom v1.1 yesterday and the sound problems
disappeared. I guess that's what I get for using a <1.0 version. Now
I'm happy - I can hear guts being wrenched out and screams of agony.
Life is good.
