I've got an older DOS game by Accolade:  Grand Prix  

It works ok when I boot directly into DOS.  And, it works 
from 98SE when I do a restart to DOS.  

However, in a shell to DOS, I get an error"   LOCATESHAPE - ACC - 
Shape or Sound not found.  

I'm guessing that it can't find the DOS speaker and/or the 
multi-media card.  And, it doesn't see the joystick, though 
that isn't critical.  

Any ideas of a utility that can be run?  BTW, SETVER didn't 
correct it.
