I remember having trouble getting sound effects working back in the day and now I am having trouble with a 386DX40 with a Soundblaster Pro.
I remember getting the sound effects to work but I cant remember how, is their a way to configure the base port/IRQ/DMA?
cheers.
setblaster line in autoexec.bat

Actually I should have add that its a problem unique to Street Fighter 2, as far as I can tell you cant change the soundblaster parameters inside the game and their is no dos setup for sound either.
Sound works fine in other dos games, like I said I remember that I got the sound effects to work I just cant remember how I acheived it.
I think you need to alter SBDRIVER.DRV with a hex editor.
I had no luck editing the hex file none of it made sense to me.
check your DOSBox options file. You'll need sbbase=220, irq=7, dma=1 for the SoundBlaster to work.
You can't change from those values or you won't get any sound at all.
Within the game, there is the "option mode" to select the sound card, and to test that it's working.
The music and sound tests allow you to press "Q" and "A" to cycle through the different samples.
I've managed to change the base port from 220 to 240 by searching for 20 02 in SBDRIVER.DRV with a hex editor and changing it to 40 02. But I couldn't change IRQ and DMA settings.
Back in the day, I didn't even know Street Fighter 2 had sound effects.
you need a a different ct-voice.drv for a different sound blaster

ah, in that case, in sbdriver.drv, port is at offset 0xa2, IRQ is at offset 0xac, and DMA is at offset 0xae.
