for some REAL help, try putting the SET BLASTER line in your dosstart.bat
file in c:\windows. i'm assuming that to play in DOS, you're shutting down
win95 and going into the MS-DOS prompt, right? also if you have lines
referring to the ess drivers in the autoexec.bat, put these in the
dosstart.bat file as well. but do this if the first doesn't help.
