I just tried it, and it didn't detect any sound card. 🙁 I'm sure there's a sound card there, as there is a connection for speakers, and when I first got the computer, it was giving me sound. BTW, I have a similar problem with a Win7/32 laptop. The sound card driver is installed and says the card is fully functional, and the sound is not mute, but I'm getting no sound.

I got the sound to work in Windows mode: it was my fault: I had the head phones in the wrong socket. It works now. 😀 And when I tried a DOS-based emulator in Windows mode, the sound also worked, and the settings were Sound Blaster Pro, IRQ 5 and DMA 1, but I don't know if those were the actual settings, or if the card is being emulated.
