When installing FreeDOS, one of the messages that flashes by includes
the word "soundblaster". see below.

I hope that this is a program that will allow me to write a C function
that will interface with a soundblaster compatible card to create a tone
of a specified frequency and duration. Up until now, I have simply
turned the PC internal speaker on and off at the desired frequency and
this was routed into the sound card and thus into the headphones. With
desktop PCs, we had the luxury of just wiring a headphone jack to the
internal speaker wires if this didn't happen, but this is a desperate
solution for a modern laptop. Thanks for any advice.
