hey how are you guys...
i got a little problem
i get the jemm not loaded error message as do others, and i can't seem to figure out whats wrong.
I'm running the game on the floppy disk version.
Hp pavilon
I have a Celeron 400 mhz
Riptide music card
6 gigs of memory blah blah blah..

heres my original autoexec.bat from windows
C:\Progra~1\networ~1\mcafee~1\scanpm.exe c:\
@if errorlevel 1 pause
@echo off

Rem to make a dos boot diskette; see the file c:\dosboot\dosboot.txt
path c:\windows;C:\windows\command
Set Blaster=a220 I5 D1 T4

Heres my original config.sys
Rem to make a dos boot diskette; see the file c:\dosboot\dosboot.txt

[common]
dos=high,umb
buffers=40
device=c:\windows\himem.sys /testmem:off
device=c:\windows\emm386.exe
Rem the below dos cd rom driver is not required to run windows 98.
Device=c:\cdrom\oakcdrom.sys /d:Idecd0000


If anyone can tell me what to write for the boot files to make my sound work thatd be AWESOME
thanks in advanced

p.s. if none of that made any sense dont make fun of me

You should create a new boot disk; here's what you want on it:

Config.sys:

DOS=HIGH,UMB,NOAUTO
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE RAM 16384 /I=B000-B7FF
BUFFERSHIGH=25
FILESHIGH=25

Autoexec.bat:
@ECHO OFF
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 T4
<mouse driver>
<sound driver>


You should look in your Dosstart.bat file (located in C:\Windows) for your sound and mouse drivers. If you can't find them, post the contents of dosstart.bat here, and we'll see what we can do.

One question: who makes the Riptide card?
 
well

works awesome... mouse works and everything...
but the sound is still messed
any time i put a sound card in...
it gives me a jemm unloaded thing
with some error... i looked it up on some site
and it said something about sound..
the game works fine if i dont put on sound
mouse works and all
but the sound IS the game
it makes it good...
help!

@echo off
rem to make a dos boot diskette; see the file c:\dosboot\dosboot.txt
set path=c:\windows\command
c:\windows\smartdrv /q

lh c:\windows\command\mscdex /d:idec0000 /l:m

set mouse=c:\imouse

set temp=c:\windows\temp
set tmp=c:\windows\temp

rem configure the sound card
c:
cd \windows\system
set blaster=a220 I5 D1 T4
cd \windows

rem to enable zip disk support in dos
rem uncomment the following line
rem C:\iomega\guest.exe

rem for dos networking including most networked game
rem read the file IPX.bat and then uncomment the following
rem call c:\dosboot\ipx.bat


none of this really makes any sense to me...

Drat... I'm not seeing your sound drivers here.

What OEM (i.e. Dell, Gateway) did you get your machine from?
 
...

im on a hp pavilon 4455
with a riptide master pci sound card..
speaking of which... riptide is made by rockwel.. if it matters
 
I search the web for DOS drivers for the Riptide sound card but couldn't find any. You'll need to check with HP to see if your card works in pure DOS and how to cinfigure it.
