This is my current cut-n-paste file for Duke3d... try in the order
presented.  

VDMSound allows the usage of sound cards for Dos games running under
Windows NT, 2000, or XP.  It can be downloaded at:

Duke3D poses an addition problem, since you cannot test for sound within
the setup program. However, if you use the following sound card settings, 
the sound will work in game without visible problem:

Sound FX Card: Sound Blaster
Address: 0x220
Sound Card Type: Sound Blaster 16 or AWE32
Interrupt: IRQ 7
8-Bit DMA Channel: 1
16-Bit DMA Channel: 5
Voices: 8
Mixing: 16-bit
Stereo Sound
Mixing rate: 22Khz

The Windows port for Duke 3D:
