Hello all,

	I have been having numerous problems trying to get games to work
with OS/2 2.1.  The main problem with most of them is I don't get any
digitized sound.

	My setup is as follows:
model:	IBM PS/2 9557
CPU:	IBM 486SLC2 50/25MHz
RAM:	8MB
OS:	OS/2 2.1
HD:	212MB SCSI (HPFS)
	160MB SCSI (HPFS)
video:	XGA-2 1MB VRAM
sound:	Sound Blaster PRO Micro Channel Version

	I can't get Return to Zork to get past the old man in the teleorb.
It just hits a loop and crashes. :-(

	I can't get the screams and yells in DOOM.  I get gun fire and
music but no voices.

	I also can't get ANYTHING from xwing when I set it up for the SBPRO.
The only way to get sound is to set it up for the ADLIB card.  But I get no
digitized sound doing that.

	Is there a problem with the SBPRO MCV?  Could the MMPM/2 drivers be
the problem?

	I would appreciate any comments on the setting for the games, card,
or anything.  Thanks in advance.
