Win 98 DOS mode audio

Hi all,
First of all, wonderful forum. It takes me back to the days of memory conflicts, UMB, EMM386, etc. Ahhhh.
That being said, I have a problem I can't find on here. When I try to play any DOS game (right now I am trying Starcon2), the sound is messed up. I have one of those COMPUSA systems with a built in soundcard. Now, for this game I need to go into MS-DOS mode.
My problem is I have no DOS drivers for this computer. Any ideas? Do you think I can just use an old Soundblaster driver?

Glad you were able to solve your problem. I am trying to run the Mantis Fighter game for DOS but can't get the audio to work because the soundcard is on IRQ 9 according to windows but the game won't recognize anything past IRQ 7. Do you know if this can be fixed?
