Want your soundcard-less PC to talk? yes? it CAN be done! My printer
has a cute little trick I've harvested. If it encounters a PC with no
sound card it offers the option of installing a "speaker driver" which
allows the printer software to put it's wav file error messages through the
speaker.
Well, turns out it's hilariously simple. Put the file "speaker.drv" into
c:\windows\system (and I bet it could be worked in DOS) and put
wave=speaker.drv into your system.ini under [drivers] section.
Want it? http://members.home.net/yvp/SPEAKER.DRV
it's pretty small, I didn't bother zipping it.
Don't expect the sound to sound very good, after all, it's your PC speaker!
I dont think it's a copywrite violation, it's only a single weird little
driver.

Inertia. It's not just an object at rest tends to stay at rest; it's
also an object in motion tends to stay in motion.
