Final Showdown with DOS Ok, i'd like to think that i'm a smart guy, so this is my final effort at figuring out what's wrong. Everybody elses sould init stuff has it in a folder called dosdrv or something of the like, except me. i don't think i have any dos drivers at all, i only have sbinit...

ACK Sound Card won't initialize! when i run the command apinit.com from my new sound folder, it says ERROR canot read sndscape.ini so i ran another search and that file is NOWHERE on my computer.... what's going on?

WOW That's gota be a record........ :D

Cool, me and Dreadnought posted at the EXACT same time!

priv dosn't even know your card exists, as it came out many years after privater did. however, your card dose emulate many cards below it. (at least mine dose) for example, i have a sound blaster PCI, and it emulates Sound Blaster PRO, Sound Blaster 16, General MIDI, Roland etc, etc. Look...

Where to begin opps i hit the new thread button instead of the post reply button! sorry! ok, here goes 1:] i do not have the sndscape.ini file you were talking about 2:] my game seems to be the same as before, it still locks, only now, ctrl+alt+del works. 3:] i have the cd...

ok, here goes 1:] i do not have the sndscape.ini file you were talking about 2:] my game seems to be the same as before, it still locks, only now, ctrl+alt+del works. 3:] i have the cd version of P1 4:] i had to reinstall the game because you changed my cd drive letter on...

I don't have sndscape.ini at all, i just made the new autoexec and config.sys and i'm gana try them now. I'll get right back to ya

YAY!!! There is still hope!!!! AUTOEXEC.BAT @echo off set dosonly=1 set path=c:\windows\command LH c:\windows\command\mscdex /D:IDECD000 /L:M set prompt=$p$g set temp=c:\windows\temp call c:\dosboot\sblast_d.bat LH c:\imouse\imouse SBLAST_D.BAT REM Ensoniq (Sound...

If your talking about the first privateer, i'm having the same issue, what sound card do you have? I have a Sound Blaster PCI and there's a program c:\SBPCI\SBCFG.EXE that'll tell me all the specs about my card and how it's configured. look for a directory like that for your card. I'm new to...

Depressing Update.... So the current autoexec and config.sys give me 595k largest executable program size (which is bigger than i've ever seen it). but unfortunatly, the game is still locking up. I turned off sound and music in the options menu so that i could play, but it locked up...

OK, the boot disk is being saved. i don't have any old drivers that i know of for my SB, i fixed those two lines, the music get's worse over time un flight now. Anxiously awaiting your good advice. Congrats on the promotion Starkey! Thanx again

...why.... WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????? lol..... i checked that folder you were talking about and it dosn't exist, but i DO have a sbpci and it's in c:\sbpci i found the ini file and everything. i ran the sound tester in dos and everything in the sound department is perfect. ( i even...

Whew!!! this stuff is rough so i re-wrote my autoexec.bat and config.sys to what Starkey said, but i havn't tried it out yet, i'm gana do that now, i just wanted to say that i looked up my sound card in windercooler, and it says i have a Sound Blaster Audio PCI 128 Legacy Device. i gota be...

No Change I changed the Emm386.exe 2592 line to Emm386.exe 16384, and then my bootdisk got all fragged and i had to make a new one. The new one has the new Emm386 line and works fine, but when i start up Privater, it's the same as before :( . I've started it up with the sound disabled and it...

no, it starts just fine, in the first message i said the problem was crackley sound and crashing. realy bad crashing, the freezing kind, where Ctrl+Alt+Delete dosn't do anything.

My info (thought it might help) My system specs: Windows 98 second edition pentium 3E -800MHz NVIDIA GForce DDR (like it matters) SB Live -or- Sound Blaster 16 PCI -or- SB AudioPCI 128 Legacy (pritty much any sound card i set in the config plays the same things with the same...

Ok, i've got the first privateer game :D, and i've done everything in the boot disk department so now i have mouse, cd-drive support, and my sound card starts up ok (at least the sound works in privateer) but the game run's way slowly, the music crackles but only when i'm in flight (not during...
