If you are using Win95 open My Pc, Control Panel, System, Device Manager. Click on the + sign next to sound video and game controlers. Select your sound card, click Properties, select the Resourses tab. Note the 1st # next to the top listing for input/output range, ie: 220, then note the interupt request, then the Direct Memory Access #. In my case with a Soundblaster 16 pnp value it is Input/Output Range 220 Interupt Request 10 DMA 03 DMA 07 Jot those down for your system, then run soundset in your nr1999 directory. Select your card and load in the settings you jotted down, Then without testing the sound, (that locks mine up every time too) Just select exit. If you have more than 1 dma# in the control panel settings you may need to try each one to get it working. I have the same prob as every once in a while Win95 will reassign the soundcard to a new Interupt # if it uses the previous one for something new, so you need to verify that your Win95 settings match what N99 is trying to use. Hope this helps. Ron [email hidden] (KEYO 717) wrote:

Don't "test" the sound, just let it detect your sound card, save and exit..... -- Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy "Team Mirage" http://www.teammirage.com/ "The Pits" http://www.theuspits.com/
