Try just ZONE66 not ZONE66 /S. I type ZONE66 >& it plays fine. Make sure you bypass the startup files [f5]. No emm386, >himem.sys, or setver or anything.

I got exactly the same problem, either ZONE66 /S or ZONE66 and it will crashed on me with the hexadecimal dump. When I play, I tell it explicity, to use the PC speaker, it works. The SBPRO option seems to be bugged. I have a true 100% dinkum SBPRO and a 100% clean MSDOS 5 system, running on a 386. The only thing out of the ordinary is I've configured my SBPRO on IRQ5, not IRQ7 (it stuffs up on IRQ7 - conflict with parallel port, I guess). -- Stephen Quan (qu...@sol.surv.utas.edu.au) Tel : 002 202844 (local) Research Fellow, Computer Scientist, Fax : 002 240282 (local) Centre for Spatial Information Systems, Tel : 61 02 202844 University of Tasmania, Australia.
