I think I know what the general problem is: digital sound isn't working at all. Eye of the Beholder I and II do not use the Sound Blaster's digital sound capability at all, so you'd never notice it if digital sound as a whole doesn't work.
As for what the specific problem is: there's not enough information to diagnose the problem. I don't even know if this person is trying to run the game in real DOS or in Windows-fake-DOS. Or what kind of Sound Blaster this is. EOB3's somewhat flaky install program has given me fits in the past, but its sound install seems to be reasonably robust. You can give me as a contact person for help (if you can't give it yourself). (Did you tell her that getting digitized sound to work is sometimes actually impossible, barring getting completely new hardware or resorting to some emulation scheme? One of my friends has a Windows box that has Sound Blaster emulation, except that it will only work for IRQ 9, and not for the usual IRQ 7 or 5. This is of ... limited utility for playing older games.) -- Stephen On Wed, 24 Jul 2002, Hugh Falk wrote: > Hi again all, > > I have another problem from a visitor to my site that I don't have a good > answer for.
