Hello Stephen!
Replying to a message of Stephen Haffly to William Johnson:
 SH> Hi William,
 SH> The PAS is one of the nicer cards.  It has both 16 bit and a full SB 8
 SH> bit card on one.  If you aren't getting sounds in DOS, it might be
 SH> because OS/2 sets it up by default without the SB side enabled.  You
 SH> could check out the manuals, but I will enclose my Config.sys lines
 SH> for you:
 SH> DEVICE=C:\MMOS2\MVPRODD.SYS /T:1 /I:10 /D:5 /S:1,220,1,5 /N:PAS161$
 SH> DEVICE=C:\MMOS2\AUDIOVDD.SYS PAS161$
  Best answer I have recieved thus far, but sad to say these are things I 
have tried on my own. :(
 SH> Of course, you will have to change the interrupts to suit your system.
 SH> This works well for me.
 SH> For some sounds though, I do need to load the DOS mixer and device
 SH> driver.  My older PAS (lableled Thunder Audio Spectrum 16) does not
 SH> initialize MIDI sounds correctly unless I load the DOS mixer with the
 SH> DOS driver in the settings menu.  That one reads like this:
 SH> DOS Device:
 SH> D:\SPECTRUM\MVSOUND.SYS D:5 Q:10 J:0 S:1,220,1,5 V:80
 SH> If I do this, the MIDI is initialized and the sounds play fine.  If
 SH> not, no MIDI sounds, and it interferes with the .WAV sounds as well. 
 SH> At that point, a reboot will set the card back in order.
 SH> Hope this helps,
  Ok let me explain the results I have gotten >:)  If I don't load 
mvsound.sys, just use mvprodd.sys like you have shown above, my sounds(wavs) 
in OS/2 work fine, and the music(midi) for games work fine, but I get no 
sounds(wavs). :(
 If I load mvprodd.sys like above, and load mvsound.sys as a device, in 
settings, then I do get music(midi), and sounds(wavs), but only for the first 
time I goto DOS. When I return from that DOS session the sounds(wavs) in OS/2 
nolonger work, and if I go back to DOS the sounds(wavs), and music(midi) 
there nolonger work(sound card's not being reset?) until I reboot.
  I have also tried not loading mvprodd.sys, which makes the DOS seesions 
work fine, but no sound(wavs) in OS/2.
   So I can either load mvprodd.sys and get sounds in OS/2, but no sounds in 
DOS, or load mvsound.sys and get sounds in DOS, but no sounds in OS/2. >'(
  BTW...what's the v:80 volume?
Bye, William!
