i tryed to load cannon fodder with vdmsound and i get a message from the game itself that there isn´t enough conventional memory!!! Without vdm i get to play but without any sound!!!
Another problem is Battle Bugs, it runs but withou any sound (with VDM loaded of course)!!
Anyone knows something that could help?

For cannon fodder: disable EMS in VDMSound and try again (or open up a command prompt, go to the Cannon Fodder directory, type "dosdrv.exe" then run the game in the same DOS box).

No idea about Battle Bugs -- someone else can help there?

Make sure your setup program's settings match those of VDMSound's (Address 220H, IRQ 7). Choose "SoundBlaster 16" for sound effects, and "SoundBlaster Pro with OPL2" for music (BTW, changing the Synthesis in VDMSound (under the "AdLib" tab in the GUI launcher) to 44100 will get you better music.

Also, make sure that sound effects and music are turned on inside the game itself (during missions, the switches by the radar/map).
