I really am a bit rusty with the whole IRQ, DMA h@ll, but you could run the command SET from the command line. One of the lines appearing should be something like
Code:
BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 T3 P330 H6
.The game expect the soundcard to respond on the addresses specified in the BLASTER variable. Instead, some other card is using them.
You should check the 'Hardware Manager' (in Windows) to see if there are any exclamation marks in the list of devices. If there are, you have a conflict and have to change either the soundcard setting or the other card (the Network card might be it). Depending on the type of card and driver you might be able to set the adresses form Windows. Some older cards require you to set a jumper on the card itself and some network cards (3COM 3c509 and 3c905's especially) only let you set these from a special boot disk.
Hope this helps a bit
