For some reason this " built in SB Emulation" doesn't work. Would there being any way of having this emulation in DOS by that autoexec (or whatever)?
When I try to rename autoexec.txt to autoexec.bat it says a file with the same name exists and tells me to use a different file name... :blink:

I have a SB- Life! 5 and I did not find any SB 16 emulation either. I remember the SB 128, I had before, worked fine. It was easy to define IRQ, DMA and E/A- Range for DOS or Win. The automatic SB 16 emulation, Scatty mentioned, well I did not found it, yet. Maybe they removed it though it is
Life! 5 not
Life! 1.
Using Win 9X, you allready have (at least) one autoexec.bat in the root directory of your start partition, because this is used, when you boot your system. Win9X still uses a DOS- kernel (WinNT/ 2000/ XP does not). Usually the autoexec.bat and the config.sys are "
hidden". I would guess it's also set to "hidden" on the floppy. WinXP has the slight tendency to hide everythyng which could be helpfull for the user to gain any knowledge about his system.
If you like to view or change a .bat- (batch-) file you can also right click it and choose "
view", the third thingy from above, if available, or open a notepad window and drag and drop the batch- file into it. It is strongly recommended to keep a copy of the original autoexec.bat in order to restore the default values. Just rename the original autoexec.bat to autoexec.bak (backup).
