I got one of those sound cards.  Assuming your OS is win9x, right click on
"My Computer", select properties from the drop down menu, (system from
control panel would also work).  Going to the Device Manager, open the list
of "Sound, Video and game controllers".  You should have one there called
"Monster Sound II Sound Blaster Pro Emulation" or similar.  Double click on
it, and select the Resources tab.  You then uncheck the  "Use automatic
settings" box, and say ok when windows gives you a warning.  Then you double
click on "Interrupt Request" under the "Resource type" heading.  A box will
come up from which you can select a new IRQ value.  Just plug in the values
Duke3D will accept, and when you find one where is says "No devices are
conflicting" in the box at the bottom of the window, you keep pressing ok
until all the windows disappear.  You may need to restart your computer
then.  And voila, sound in Duke Nukem 3D.
