DosBox emulates it's own soundcards which then output to your real sound card. You can not configure your games in DosBox to use your real sound card, ONLY THE DOSBOX SOUNDCARD.

So look for "Sound Blaster", "General MIDI", "Adlib", etc. and then set them up as appropriate.

For SoundBlaster use IRQ 7, Port 220, DMA 1 and DMA 5
For General MIDI use Port 330.

before you start the game (ultima7.com) you have to start the installer with install.exe and then choose the appropiate as DosFreak explained.

hi thnx for the reply.

the thing is that when i used the ultima collection cd to install ultima7, it didnt ask me to setup my sound configuration. im wondering now whether i have to somehow make the game 'setup' the emulator soundcard.

i rem when i used to have the orginial ultima7 they did ask me for sound card config...is there anyway to get this option out using ultima collection?
