The following procedure removes DOS support for SoundBlasters running on Windows PCs. You should try this out if you are having problems starting up Kyma and you have any kind of SoundBlaster PCI card installed. ============================================== 1. Use sysedit (you can run this using the Run item in the Start menu) to edit autoexec.bat. 2. Look for a line that ends with SBEINIT.COM. On the system I just looked at it was: C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\SBLIVE\DOSDRV\SBEINIT.COM 3. Add REM followed by a space to the beginning of the line: REM C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\SBLIVE\DOSDRV\SBEINIT.COM On the system we were working with here, the computer would get stuck in the start up of Windows. After we made this change, the computer could start up, we could use the SoundBlaster, and we could use Kyma. What this change does is remove DOS driver support for the SoundBlaster, and so will make any DOS-based sound applications stop working. However, I would guess that not many people are using DOS-based sound applications any more. IP: Logged |

Here is some additional information for people who are using the Zefiro Acoustics ZA2 PCI sound card for Windows: The code in autoexec.bat to REM out is: SET ZA2=C: According to the manual these programs are needed for win3.1 (Thanks to David Mooney for pointing this out.) IP: Logged |
