(sorry my bad english)

Playing Blood the game doesn't start and this message pops up: ''src\sound.cpp(516): Playback failed, possibly due to an invalid or conflicting IRQ.''

I tried every sound FX cards in setup. The only way to play the game is putting sounds off.

IRQ 7 is what you want.

Also verify that all files are not set to read-only before running the setup utility.

Yeah, some DOS games default to IRQ 5 for Sound Blaster, while others default to 7. DOSBox emulates a Sound Blaster on IRQ 7, so you'll want to make sure the game's setup program is set to use that.

Thanks dude! I put IRQ to 5 and sounds work perfectly.
