First off a HUGE thanks to the developers. I've been using dosbox off and on since the .5x versions and it is a wonderful program.

Now for my problem.

With a bit of configuration I'm able to get the music and sound effects to work just fine, except I only get sound out of my left speaker. All sounds in Windows come out of both speakers. I've tried 2 other games in dosbox with the same .conf file and they both have sound from both speakers. It is only Lemmings that seems to do this.

I had to change the sbtype setting to sbpro1 for me to get the sound working even with cycles = 3000. Could this be causing the problem?

Thanks again for the great program and all the helpful people who frequent this forum.

might be. sbpro1 is a mono soundcard

Well that certainly explains it.

I guess I'll have to experiment with some of the other settings to get it to work like it did before.

Thanks for the info.

I have a problem too with lemmings, I finaly made up to get some sound in Lemmings and music but after I finish the 2 levels it gets me back to the main screen then freezes. I tried Holiday Lemmings too and it does the same thing only that it freezes after the 3rd level

Weird, however it happens EVERY TIME on Oh No More Lemmings for me. It doesn't really "freeze", you can safely continue the game by right and left clicking at the frozen screen.

Alternatively, switching to windowed mode solves the freeze problem (for me at least)
