B-6 Understanding the Installation

You can also choose to set up your Windows applications at a
later time by running INSTALL in the audio software directory
on your hard disk. INSTALL also allows you to selectively set
up components that were not installed previously.

The installation program also modifies your AUTOEXEC.BAT and
CONFIG.SYS files.

The AUTOEXEC.BAT File Settings

The installation program adds the following statements to the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 E620 T6

SET SOUND=C:\SB16

SET MIDI=SYNTH:1 MAP:E MODE:0

C:\SB16\DIAGNOSE /S /W=C:\WINDOWS

C:\SB16\MIXERSET /P /Q

C:\SB16\AWEUTIL /S

The first 3 statements set up the environment variables for your audio
card.The last 3 statements run the DIAGNOSE, MIXERSET, and
AWEUTIL utilities. The BLASTER statement is added by the
DIAGNOSE utility, and the values shown above may differ from
those in your system.

❑ Running DIAGNOSE with the /S parameter updates the

BLASTER environment with the resource settings from the
PnP configuration manager.

❑ Running DIAGNOSE with the /W=C:\WINDOWS parameter

updates the SYSTEM.INI file in the Windows directory with
the resource settings from the PnP configuration manager.

For a description of the AWEUTIL utility, refer to the
AWEUTIL.TXT file found in the installation directory of your
audio card.
