Update. I edited msdos.ini file, and change bootgui to 0. Now I have MS-DOS right after win98 loading screen. My Soundcard is visible and recognized by programs, but does not play. (In music programs like xtcplayer, Cubic Player patterns are standing still). What else I should do?

Right now autoexec and config is blank (but they are there). So, should I just Install DOS over Windows? Should I use different pattern? …

Looks like I have the same problem. So is there any way to figure it out without installing Win 98? Can you provide your autoexec and config sys? Maybe something will be in it?
