Ok...I appear to have successfully installed OS/2 Warp 4. But...I'm stumped by how to set up and use the multimedia.

The computer I have installed OS/2 on has on-board Ess Solo-1 sound. I downloaded a driver from the ESS web site, and installed it per instructions. But..I can't get any sound at all.

I thought maybe the driver was the problem. So...I installed a SB-16 card that I had from an old PC. For that one, I used the driver that came with OS/2. The installation seems to take, but when I start up, I get an error message that says "Error Resetting Soundblaster 16." I'm then told that the relevant config.sys lines are being ignored.

Ant thoughts on what the problem may be?

Thanks in advance!
