Hi.
I am playing Unfinished Business on my computer, but there is no sound in the game. Whenever I select the option "Manually detect sound card" in the setup exe file, the file exits. Can you help? And also, this game does not allow switching between other Windows' applications.
Thanks.

OS: Windows 98se
Machine: 400 Celeron, 128 RAM
Graphics: Onboard (Intel 810 Chipset)
Sound: Onboard (Crystal)

Have you installed VDMS?

It's a DOS game, you can't switch to Windows applications.

You *can *switch to Windows apps, they just don't pop back to fill the screen. If you know how to control them using the keyboard, you can do stuff in them as long as they are the one selected on the task bar.

With Windows 98 you may get away without VDMSound.

Try:

Soundcard: SoundBlaster
Port: 220
DMA: 1
Interrupt: 5

Anyway thank you so much; problem solved.
