-
- =============================================================================
- 1) Using EZ Sound FX with Windows 3.1 and the Sound Blaster Pro or
- the Mediavision Pro AudioSpectrum 16 or Pro AudioSpectrum Plus
- =============================================================================
-
-
- The new version of the Sound Blaster Pro and the Pro AudioSpectrum Plus and
- Pro AudioSpectrum 16 use a new synthesis chip from Yamaha called the OPL3.
- The Multimedia drivers put this chip into a mode that is not compatible with
- EZSound FX. To let EZSound know that you are using one of these boards you
- must select the Multimedia Extensions/Win 3.1 option in PANELFX which is
- specific to your board.
-
- If you are using the Sound Blaster Pro you should be using the Board Type:
-
- Multimedia Extensions/Win 3.1 SBPro
-
- If you are using the Mediavision Pro AudioSpectrum Plus or 16 you should be
- using the Board Type:
-
- Multimedia Extensions/Win 3.1 PAS+/16
-
- All other boards use the standard Board Type:
-
- Multimedia Extensions/Win 3.1
-
- If you have a board which is using the Multimedia Extensions and doesn't
- work with Music FX, it is possible that it is using the OPL3.
-
- You can let EZSound know that your board has an OPL3 by editing the SFSOUND.INI
- file.
-
- Under the section [FM] you will have to change the OPL3=No line to OPL3=Yes.
-
-
- =============================================================================
- 2) Removing EZSound FX from the SYSTEM.INI file.
- =============================================================================
-
- If you are having problems and would like to remove EZ SOUND FX, from your
- system you must change two entries in your SYSTEM.INI file found in your
- WINDOWS directory.
-
- First:
- Under the section [boot] you will find 3 lines that read something like the
- following:
-
- ;EZSound FX Driver
- sound.drv=sfsound.drv
- ;sound.drv=mmsound.drv
-
- Remove the commented ";EZSound FX Driver" line and the following line
- with the sound.drv=sfsound.drv or sound.drv=sfsnd.drv.
- Also remove the ; on the 3rd line to reenable your old sound driver.
-
- Second
-
- Under the section [386Enh] you will find 2 lines that read
-
- ; The line device=vclmad.386 is used by EZSound FX
- device=vclmad.386
-
- Delete these 2 lines from the file.
-
- This will remove all system dependent drivers from your system and return
- you to your original setup for Windows.
-
- You will also find a file in your EZSound installation directory called
- SETUP.LOG which contains a list of all files which were installed on your
- system by EZSound FX.
