Hmm... I have been blissfully ignorant of Paul Page's voice, and I don't
get any crash sounds during my (frequent) entanglements with walls and other
cars. But I do get engine sound and music. What have I done wrong? I
took the SoundBlaster setup defaults. I think the board is at the default
address of 0x220 and the IRQ originally defaulted to 7 (I changed it to 12
at the suggestion of my sound board manual, but this had no effect). I have
a brand Z SoundBlaster/AdLib compatible board (I think it's called a Cardinal
Jazz? It came with my Gateway 2000 486DX2-66).
Incidently, I am looking at the back cover of the current Byte, which is
advertising a Dell 60MHz Pentium for $1999, and a 90MHz version with CDrom
and SoundBlaster for $2499. Since a comparably equipped DX2-66 costs about
$2200, it seems that Pentium has arrived.

Brian, try changing the IRQ to 5. I had the same deal with my SB16 using
IRQ 7. Hope it works.

And Darrel Cherry responded:
Would you help me with engine sound?
I have Ensonique card with GW P5-90 using
SB emulation, IO port 220, IRQ 5, DMA 1
Canvas 330
Right now I get voice and music. I'm such a "rookie" that this message
may not even arrive! Appreciate your patience and help!
