I recently purchased a Micron Millennia w/ 200 mhz Pentium, but my
Formula T2 doesnt work w/ it.  Per Thrustmaster, I ordered their ACM
game card.  The instructions state I have to disable the current game
port.  I have a Soundblaster AWE32 card.  Does anyone know how I disable
the Soundblaster game port????  Would appreciate the info!

I have an old AWE32 (non-PnP, thank god) and there's a jumper for
disabling the onboard game port. For PnP version, I have no clue ...

1. Search your drive for CTPNP.CFG
2. Load it into a text editor.
3. Under [Gameport], change Disable=0 to Disable=1
4. Reboot.

Assuming you are running Win95, go into the Control Panel - System
settings and find the entry for the AWE32 game port. Select properties
and untick the box which says "Original Configuration". Reboot the
machine and the game port will be disabled (at least on my machine).
