Operating System: NT Workstation 4.0
Audio: Sound Blaster 16 ISA
Game: Lucas Arts' X-Wing CD-ROM for DOS
File System: NTFS

This DOS game ran fine from both a DOS 6.2 boot disk and a Windows 95 boot
disk, when set to run this DOS game from a hard drive formatted with FAT16.

The game also ran fine when run directly from the hard disk under Windows 95
(FAT16).  The games graphics and visuals run fine when run directly from the
hard disk under Windows NT 4.0 (NTFS), but there is no sound or music.

The DOS based programs that come with Sound Blaster and X-Wing CD-ROM,
Diagnose.exe and Setmuse.exe respectively, return the following error
message:

"The sound card driver you have selected is not recommended for use with
your sound card.  Please use another driver."

All other programs have perfect sound.  Any suggestions?
