I downloaded the Need For Speed 3MB demo from EA's home page, and I can't get sound. I had to make a boot disk because I only have 8 MB of RAM. The config.sys file had no sound card in it, so I just used my NASCAR boot disk. The sound works fine in NASCAR when I use it. I tried using all of the available .pif files to start the game, and I tried the tnfs.exe file. I get the game to work fine, but I get no sound. I have a SB-16.

I have the same problem with my SB 1.0. I believe the problem may be that EA have hardcoded an IRQ/DMA/etc setup into the game, which I haven't been able to configure for my IRQ/DMA, and therefore, if you have a different setup, you don't get any sound. I could be wrong, but this is the only way I see why I'm not getting sound. daniel.
