Hi all,

Trying (as many have before me Im sure) to get my soundcard working in Dos for advancemame/menu.

I have an old creative PCI ensoniq card which requires EMM386. My config sys and autoexec.bat are shown below.

CONFIG.SYS
device=c:\dos\himem.sys
device=c:\dos\emm368.exe noems /verbose
dos=high,umb

AUTOEXEC.BAT
set blaster=A220 I5 D1 H7 P330 T6
set sbpci=c:\dosdrv
c:\dosdrv\sbload
c:\dosdrv\sbinit

When I try to initialise the sblaster dirvers I get this error

"Could not allocate code/patch RAM below 4 MByte boundary. Try loading SBInit.com before SMARTDRV.EXE or minimising VDISK RAM. PCI audio driver NOT loading"

Any help greatly appreciated. I have already tried looking for memory holes in the BIOS but not options there.

Thanks in advance
Rolf
