the Windows 98 have 1 batch file, or similar, for i add 1 command for open a sound emulation, when we open the command prompt?

Uhh...what?

i found the 'dosstart.bat' file... but i can lose some data... the laptop freezes when i execute the game after execute the vdmsound(dosdrv) emulation 🙁

uh... I'm 99% sure vdmsound is for windows NT.

Let's go back to the beginning.
1) does sound work in windows?
2) what game?

AFIK dos sound within windows kinda 'just worked'. Maybe the blaster variable needs to be set but that's it.

1 - YES;
2 - on Doom I & II, Heretic (3D games)

but not on 2D games.... i belive that i must set the SoundBlaster options on Autoexec.but... not all 2D games have sound options(IRQ\DMA\others)

Did you run the set up program for Doom/heretic?

yes and i try use them on autoexec.bat without success 🙁

What? Why?
Uninstall vdmsound. It's for Nt.
Delete whatever trash you've added to autoexec.
Start windows.
Open dos window.
Run doom setup
Select sound blaster.
Test.
Hear anything?

i can't use SBUM... yes the Doom have sound

Huh?
SBUM?
Sound = yes = no problem. No?
