Try running another executable called setup, install, setsound, or something like that. Set to Sound Blaster 16 (or earlier), IRQ 7 DMA 1

Some very old games ask it every time they're started, whereas most not-so-old DOS games include a separate configuration program that allows us to save the information so we don't have to enter it more than once. This program is usually called SETUP, INSTALL, SETSOUND or something like that.

That worked. You guys are a great help. One last question for now. The game only opens in a windowed mode. Any way to get it full screen?

Alt-Enter toggles full screen on/off. Alternatively, open the config file and edit the full screen line to change the default.
