Tomb Raider I sound???

😕

Hi gang! Just got Tomb Raider I. The game installs fine except for Sound. In the "manual mode" install it asks for sound card specs that are older cards (they don't list my SB Live card). They then ask for port, DMA, and IRQ settings. The only setting I know f is IRQ=11 and that's not a choice on the install. AutoDetect does not find it... Thoughts, ideas, and suggestions are appreciated...

System: AMD 1.4 gig, 512 Meg DDR, video Nvidia MX400 64Meg, SBLive sound card

if i'm correct the sb live also has sb16 emulation, which should be supported by TR 1 (i think).
Open up a dos box and type set blaster, that will show a line like BLASTER=A240 I7 D3 H7 P330 T6 which has the soundcard settings:
Axxx = base port
Ix = IRQ
Dx = 8 bit DMA
Hx = 16 bit DMA
Pxxx = MIDI base port
Tx = some SB model number

In TR setup select a SB16 soundcard with the settings from the blaster line and it should work..
