## SUMMARY

The following information is an example of the [SNDSYS.DRV] section of the SYSTEM.INI file for the Windows Sound System. The explanation describes which lines determine the DMA, Interrupt, and I/O address of the Windows Sound System card:

       [SNDSYS.DRV]
       DMABufferSize=32
       EnableAutoAcquireOPL3=1
       Msft Hardware=1
       Msft Support=1
       Auto Select=1
       Midi Play=1
       DMA 0=1
       DMA 1=1
       DMA 3=1
       Default DMA=0
       I/O 530=1
       I/O 604=1
       I/O E80=1
       I/O F40=1
       Default I/O=530
       IRQ 7=1
       IRQ 9=1
       IRQ 10=1
       IRQ 11=1
       Default IRQ=7
       OldMSDOSGameCompatibility=False
       DMADAC=0
       DMAADC=0
       Interrupt=10
       IOAddress=530

The DMADAC and the DMAADC lines determine the DMA that Windows Sound System uses. The Interrupt and IOAddress lines determine the interrupt and I/O address of the board.
