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. Jesus M. Rodriguez p...@umiacs.umd.edu

Rodriguez >p...@umiacs.umd.edu > I have a 9577 & SBPro MCV. I changed the SB port addr to 240 from 220 because I heard that 220 conflicted with SCSI. Don't know whether it matters. I get all sounds on XWing (SBPRO setting), although with the joystick enabled the FM sounds are flaky. Other than this flaky FM synthesis with the joystick enabled (Why???), most other games seem to work as well with MC as I thought they did with ISA. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Craig P.
