to get the sound to work for DOS games. play a little with it´s settings to figure out which one fits best to your system. Abuse was VERY playable for ten minutes (the time allowed to play by SoundFX since it´s only a demo). If I get Privateer (1) to work under W2k, I´ll buy this SoundFX stuff...
Ha! When Origin wrote Privateer (1) the only OS's on the block were Windows 3.11/Dos and OS/2. Origin wrote Privateer so it wouldn't run on OS/2 - but it backfired. They wrote thier own extended memory manager code - and hence it won't run on anything but pure dos - do as I do - dual boot.
