What type of soundcard do you have on your system.    Have you tried
to use the soundblaster mono option?   Also, what type of
configuration are you using for the demo?   Please let me know.
Thanks.   :)

I have an Acer MagicS20 sound card.  It's suppoed to emulate the SBPro.  My 
config is booting into the command prompt option from '95, since it would just 
hang with a blank screen if I tried running it from within '95. I have a P90 
with 8 RAM, 1 meg cirrus logic PCI card.  I'll try the mono trick and see if 
that works.

I got the same error, so I checked the readme file which suggests that you 
switch to sounblaster basic support only.

I was using my premium 3-d sound card in sb pro mode, got the same error, 
changed back to sound blaster basic mode, and everything was fine.


Hope this helps

What type of configuration are you using for the game?   Please send
me a copy of the configuration and I will see what I can do to help
you out with getting the demo working.

I guess I'm luckier! Game runs great in svga until I get to the main 
building and pick up the rocket launcher. Yeaaaa!!! Oops - memloc error, 
back to DOS and long tone from sb16 card.Rerun, restore, got the rocket 
launcher. Problem is , memloc error every time I try to use it. Any ideas 
EA? (Pentium 75, 16Mb, SB16).

You need more free RAM!!! (No smartdrv...?)   It runs smothly in 320x200 
and soundblaster mono, but hangs up on everything  else.
