That means you are trying to use a sound card (specifically the music
setting) that is not supported by Duke 3D.

To correct thus, you must install VDMSound.  VDMSound allows the proper
usage of sound cards for Dos games running under Windows NT, 2000, or XP.
It can be downloaded at:

Whatever you do, don't test the sound in the setup utility.  That will
cause a crash.
