Hey guys, I have been hitting my head against the wall about this and need some help.

I am currently trying to configure Earthseige via SOUNDSET.EXE in MS-DOS mode in Windows 98SE. To my understanding, SOUNDSET only auto-detects sound settings. While I would expect my Sound Blaster settings to be detected, my Microsoft Sound System configuration is detected instead:

I currently do not hear any sound when a game is configured to use my Windows Sound System configuration (Earthseige does not play sound. Tomb Raider, for example, locks up with a high pitch noise when testing sound settings with Microsoft Sound System. SB works great!) These are my current questions:

1) Is there a way to manually configure sound settings for Earthseige? I see there is a RESOURCE.CFG in the root directory of the game, though I have not found any guide for identifying driver values to change this file (if RESOURCE.CFG is what's consumed by Earthseige that is).

2) What should I start looking into to get my Windows Sound System settings working properly?

3) Is there another configurations/variables I need to have set in autoexec.bat or config.sys to have SOUNDSET.exe run as intended?

4) Are there other factors that I am not considering?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated. This is a pretty cool community.
