Hi guy´s. I´m ham radio, and I´m using a program called TSTHost 1.43c for DOS that is used to make packet radio. That program has a "ebell" that makes a single "pop" in the system speaker when anybody calls me. That sound is very short and low volume, so a low background noise makes it inaudible. From anybody that know programming, is it possible to catch the interrupt to the speaker, and call a subroutine that songs a very short piece of music, or make a strong noice?
This speaker works properly, because in all games it sounds OK. And also in the speaker test of NDiags and CheckIt.(PD:I am not programmer!!!)
Thanks for any suggestion.
Best regards.

If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong.

Como sos argentino, te escribo en castellano.
En cambio de darte una solución por "soft", te sugiero una alternativa por "hard": Las antiguas tarjetas de sonido ISA Sound Blaster de Creative tienen una entrada para el "speaker" de la PC.
Yo tengo una SB 16 (CT2940)y le fabriqué un conector que va desde los pines "spk out" de la motherboard a la entrada de la placa de sonido.
Así, todos los sonidos que antes iban al parlantito, ahora me salen por los parlantes "potenciados" que conecté a la SB.

Ok, Dani, agradezco tu respuesta, pero no me sirve. El parlantito anda bien. Yo quiero en realidad que suene algo mas fuerte y agradable SOLO EN ESE PROGRAMA. Por otro lado, poner una SB solo para eso es medio al dope. Tengo 3 486´s, dos de ellas con SB, pero conectadas a un ampli hecho casero( 3* 12W + 3* 4W), y con 3 Karlson de 15" + 4". Se va enterar todo el barrio que están llamándome por packet, no???. Yo quisiera algo que ataje la llamada de interrupcion al parlante, y la desvie a un TSR o algo así que haga un sonidito pedorro, pero menos pedorro que un simple "POP" en el speaker.
