You have my sympathies I have a similar problem but haven't had a chance
to follow up on it yet. first you need to double check your settings.
you need to check the settings for the creative sound blaster PCI128
legacy card not the regular card entry. Are you running in a DOS Window
or in MS DOS mode. you need to put the statement apinit in there
someplace. I'm not sure where. It's in a help file someplace. I'm not
sure where though. I think it's in the autoexec.bat but if it needs a
load or device statement.
