O.K, this is an OLD OLD question, but I can't find any info on the SET BLASTER command under DOS.

I have a program(QuickView for DOS), which requires you to have the Set Blaster variable set.

I have never used this variable before, so don't know how to set it.

At the C prompt, I type:

SET BLASTER A:220 D:1 I:5

I am trying to tell the SET BLASTER variable, that there is a soundcard at address 220, DMA channel #1, and IRQ #5.

I keep getting "Sytax error.", so the actuall command must be correct, but the command-line switches are wrong.

The card in the machine, is an old ISA-bus ESS card with a 1875 chipset.

Can someone show me the light here?

Thanks!
:)

GREAT! Thanks! This worked a treat. I now have the correct syntax, and the program works fine. Many thanks. :) MM.
