Installing Sound Drivers for Windows 3.11 in DosBox - Irinikus - 07-09-2022

Although I've been able to successfully run games in DosBox with sound, Windows 3.11 didn't have a sound driver installed and therefore no system sounds or sound media could be accessed in Windows.

After doing some searching, I came across this site:

http://www.sierrahelp.com/Utilities/Emulators/DOSBox/3x_InstallSB.html



Which firstly has the link to the appropriate Creative SoundBlaster 16 driver file for DosBox, but also has a comprehensive set of instructions as to how to install the driver in such a way, that it will work in Windows 3.11.

I DID HOWEVER HAVE TO INITIATE THE DRIVER INSTALL FROM DOS, AS IT WOULDE'NT INSTALL FROM WITHIN WINDOWS 3.11

Now Windows 3.11 has sound!!!
