Which game? Also go ahead and post your config.sys, autoexec.bat, and maybe even your dosstart.bat. Stinger will likely be able to come up with what you need so you can run it from DOS, whatever it is.
ok new problem, when i try to set my music, i get to the manual and autodetect screen and the screen goes black, the whole comp is frozen, oh god i wanna play privateer. its been soooo long.
Well, I reckon that your problem is the lack of CD-ROM drivers
.
I don't know much about this, but I think Stinger (he only shows up every couple of days) will need to know more about your CD-ROM. Manufacturer, model, that sort of thing.
its the dos version so it doesnt work in windows. I got the cdrom drivers for dos and installed and they work. i get to the install menu and when i try to choose my music card the screen goes black and the comp locks. It lets me pick and configure my digital audio though. just that music card when i got the the auto configure or manual spot. in manual configure it locks at the irq setting
Is your IRQ 5 already in use by some other device? If not you could use that one for your sound card.
Either use the appropriate setup utility that came with your sound card or change the I7 setting of the SET BLASTER=... statement in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to I5 manually. I had some sound problems, too, when let WINDOWS handle the setup of my card.
Let's see if this is of any use to you

Here are the sound card settings you should be using:
Sound Blaster / SB Pro
I/O: 220
IRQ: 7
DMA: 1
How are you getting to DOS? If you are using a boot disk, make sure that that first line from your DOSSTART.BAT is in your boot disk's AUTOEXEC.BAT; otherwise, your sound card won't be working.
