SB Emulation in MS-DOS/ Windows 95/98 B-3
The third statement runs the
SBEINIT.COM
driver.
SBEINIT.COM
is the SB Live! MS-DOS
driver. It is required for the SB Live! card to function properly under MS-DOS mode. The syntax
for the statement is as follows:
<SB Live! path>\SBEINIT.COM
SBEINIT.COM
requires that the
HIMEM.SYS
and
EMM386.EXE
files are loaded. If needed, the
installation program adds the necessary
HIMEM.SYS
and
EMM386.EXE
lines to your
CONFIG.SYS
file, creating the file if it is not present.
On the rare occasion a program does not work with expanded memory, simply add the
NOEMS
parameter to your memory manager. For example:
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS
if C:\WINDOWS is your Windows directory.
You may load this driver into high memory in the
AUTOEXEC.BAT
file, even though the default
is not. For example:
LOADHIGH=C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\SBLIVE\DOSDRV\SBEINIT.COM
Do not remove the memory manager altogether. Do not attempt to load
SBEINIT.COM
into high
memory when using the
NOEMS
option if
SBEINIT.COM
fails to run
SBELOAD.EXE
or
SBECFG.EXE
.
In the rare case that an MS-DOS game will not work with a memory manager, you will not be
able to use the SB Live! card with the game.
The CONFIG.SYS File
Settings
The installation program adds the following statements to the
CONFIG.SYS
file:
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE
