Thanks for your help, the soundblaster works. Now the only problem is that I haven't
found the address for the 16 bit DMA. So the sounds works only with 8-bit DMA. On
Windows NT (on the other partition) there isn't an utility that shows this address (or
better, I've found only the address for the 8-bit DMA). But the sndconfig asks this
information. How can I solve this problem?
