Definetly a sound problem.  Eek.
What sound card ya got?  I know there is a prob with PCI soundcards in
Win98, and certain DOS games can't detect it.
Outside of Windows though, it should be ok.

Also, you said that you had it running once.  But now you can't.  Anything
changed in the meantime to cause this?  Installed anything new, that could
have nicked an IRQ or two?
Tried reinstalling Tycoon?  My copy was doing strange things, but when I
reinstalled, all was happy....

Just a couple of thoughts...
