GP2 Install Problems. Please Help...

I've had GP2 for some time and it would install fine on my old P133 but now that I have my new computer I can't get it to run properly. It installs fine but fails to find the soundcard which is an Ensoniq Soundscape, its the same card that was in my P133 so I can't see what the problem should be now. I'm also using the latest drivers for it from the Ensoniq web page. It says in the readme file that you should enter the IRQ settings etc manually if this happens but I can't see how and where you can enter the settings manually, maybe I'm just missing the obvious or something. I would really appreciate any comments either by email or posted on here. I never really played it a great deal on my old system because of the frame rate but now that I have a new 200mhz machine I'd really like to get back into it.. Thanks in advance...-David

I Also have an Ensoniq Soundscape card. I am able to play gp2 in DOS or Win 95 with sound. I am pretty sure that after the install of the program you should execute the "setup sound" option. Ensonig sounscape is one of the choices. I am at work now (GP2 is loaded on my PC at Home) so i cant say for sure if this is the exact procedure. You should also check Device manager and see if your sound blaster emulation is tech by trade, I cant have Someone miss out on the GP2 experience.
