Hi.

First off, thanks for a fantastic site. Secondly, I want to express my happiness, cause I downloaded the games I wanted moments before they all got esa marked

Anyway, here's my problem:
I've got an old Pentium II Compaq monster with onboard sound (sound blaster compatible). Furthermore, I've installed ms-dos 7.1 on the box (OT: would 6,2 be a better alternative?).
I've set up the sound card using the following line in autoexec.bat

SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 E620 T6

(So I've got no SET SOUND or SET MIDI - problem?)

I'm gonna use the following games as reference games (as the titles themselves might help you remembering the solution to my problem):

Prince of Persia
Dyna Blaster
Duke Nukem 3d

All games works fine, even duke3d in VESA mode, and all play sound effects perfectly. Prince of Persia even plays music in the opening sequence (da-dadadadaaaa :P).
BUT, Dyna Blaster and duke3d does not play any music. No matter what sound card I try in the duke3d setup, it refuses to say anything (it does not give a warning with most cards I try though...).

I've tried setting the following:

SET MIDI=SYNTH:1 MAP:E

in autoexec.bat, but it didn't help muck.

So what do I do? Please help (Guess the following smiley is required here: :help: )

thanks in advance
