The beauty of VDM Sound is that it does not care what type of sound card you have installed. It provides a 'virtual' SoundBlaster (et. al) for the DOS game in question, Silent Hunter Commander's Edition. The instruction that I wrote have a DIG.INI file and MDI.INI file listings included in the instructions. All you have to do is use a text editor and create both the DIG.INI and MDI.INI file;

DIG.INI file contents:
;Miles Design Audio Interface Library V3.03 of 18-Jun-95
;

DEVICE Creative Labs Sound Blaster 16 or AWE32
DRIVER SB16.DIG
IO_ADDR 220h;
IRQ 7
DMA_8_BIT 1
DMA_16_BIT 5

MDI.INI file contents:
;
;Miles Design Audio Interface Library V3.03 of 18-Jun-95
;

DEVICE Creative Labs Sound Blaster 16 or AWE32
DRIVER SB16.MDI
IO_ADDR 220h
IRQ 7
DMA_8_BIT 1
DMA_16_BIT 5

You need BOTH of the files as listed above for the SHCE to work. Remember, it does NOT matter that you have a Turtle Beach soundcard, what is important is that Silent Hunter Commander's Edition THINKS that it is dealing with a SoundBlaster-16 which is what VDM Sound has 'virtually' provided to the Windows XP/Windows 2000/Windows NT Dos emulation.

So repeat after me: As far as Silent Hunter Commander's Edition is concerned, you DO have a Creative SoundBlaster 16...

Best of luck,

I really appreciate that tip, I'll try it out again and let you know how it goes.
Thanks

I got Silent Hunter 1 to work using the same instructions and it run fine graphically and I DO get sound but it breaks up real bad.

Anyone know why the sound might be garbled 50% of the time?

..thanks
