Does the game work if you load the SB drivers, but pick no sound and no music in the setup? Does it work with only FX? Does it work with only music?
Did you try to remove the "D=64 FRAME=E000 /I=B000-B7FF" part from oyur EMM386 line?

 

[kaczor]

it is not working with no sound either ... only when I remove SB from autoexec ... only then it is working ... but with no sound of course

remowing "D=64 FRAME=E000 /I=B000-B7FF" gives nothing ... situation still the same ...

Had the same problem

Fixed it by removing the line that configured emm386.exe. Just put a rem in it and see how you go. So no emm386.exe running at all. Still run himem tho
