Ok, this is what I did...

John, I check you posting earlier and in your autoexec.bat file, you had an error. The line set ctyn=c:\windows should be set ctsyn=c:\windows....that's why the sound drive would not load correctly. Well, I corrected that and did the following

1. I copied your Autoexec.bat with the ctsyn change to another bootdisk
2. I copied your config.sys file to the bootdisk as well.
3. Went into sbeset and changed out the A220 I7 D1 H7 P330 T6 to the following: A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 T6 J200 (can not get 201 for some reason)
4. Booted the machine
5. SB driver error/conflict with pci device (that's the change from Irq7 to irq5 (the blaster and sound card can not have the same irq)

6. Loaded the game as normal ... yet, no sound or music.

Here is the current autoexec.bat file and config.sys file

SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\SBLIVE\DOSDRV\;
SET TEMP=C:\TEMP
SET TMP=C:\TEMP

Any changes you feel you need to do to the sound card setting is o'kay. Read the reponse to the other thread. Try to get IRQ5 for the sound card.

Also try this
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE 16384 RAM I=B000-B7FF
