1. Do you run arachne under windows? If not, the drivers provided by
windows will have to be installed in their DOS version (if exist). See the
listing in windows Control Panel -> system -> devices (or similar) ->
sound, for details on the soundcard. Maybe you can activate dos support
from there, too (but then only for windows' dos-box)
2. Do you have a cdrom for the soundcard? If not it may be worthless
without windows.
3. If both above fail (no windows, no cdrom (or diskette), no manual),
better open up the computer, see what slot the card is in (probably pci,
for a new system) and write down the brand and number on the sound chip in
order to do some google search), and once you're at it, check for the
presence of a tiny 4 wire cable directly from the cdrom drive to the sound
card.
Good luck
