SUMMARY
Windows Sound System comes with an application called the Windows Sound
System MS-DOS Configuration program (WSSCNFG.EXE). This application is run
from within Windows to provide Creative Labs Sound Blaster emulation at the
MS-DOS level. When you run WSSCNFG.EXE, it will add the following lines to
the beginning of your CONFIG.SYS file:
[MENU]
menuitem=Default,Default Configuration
menuitem=SBCompat,Sound Blaster Compatibility
[SBCompat]
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\SNDSYS\EMM386.EXE 512 RAM
DEVICE=C:\SNDSYS\WSSXLAT.EXE sbio=220 irq=7 dma=1
DOS=HIGH,UMB
BUFFERS=20
FILES=30
[Default]
The rest of the lines from your pre-existing CONFIG.SYS file go here.
The above lines are the default entries for a system running MS-DOS 6.0 or
later, or a system running MS-DOS 5.0 or earlier with the addition of a
third-party multiconfiguration program called BOOTCON. If the system is
running MS-DOS 5.0 or earlier without BOOTCON, the following changes are
made.
The following line is added:
DEVICE=C:\SNDSYS\WSSXLAT.EXE sbio=220 irq=7 dma=1
The following line is modified if already present or added if not:
DEVICE=C:\SNDSYS\EMM386.EXE 512 RAM
