Several DOS and Windows
applications are provided with the
package that comes with your audio
card.
If
you have Windows
3.1
and
have not installed it, it is advisable
that you install it before installing
your audio card's software.
To
install the software:
I. Insert your Audio Card
Installation Disk into your disk drive.
2.
Change to the drive containing the disk.
3. Type
INSTALL
and press <Enter>.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation.

installation program will store the software into the directory you
specify
or
the default \SB PRO.
It
also adds the following to
AUTOEXEC.BAT

Refer to Appendix C, "Setting Environment Variables" for a
description
of
the SOUND and BLASTER environment settings.
When you run the installation program, it installs the DOS and Windows
applications onto the hard disk. The program also allows you to setup your
Windows application by adding a command to the WIN.INI file to run
WINSETUP.EXE.
The
command automatically creates the audio card
group window and the application's icon when you run Windows the next
time. You can also choose to setup your Windows applications and
drivers at a later time
by
running INSTALL from your sound directory.
Testing
the
Installation
Once
you have installed the card,
run the test program DIAGNOSE to
make sure the card has been
installed properly. This program
checks the base I/O address,
interrupt, and OMA channel used
by the Audio interface, and then
displays a menu to let you test the
card's
sound and music output.
To
run the test program:
I. Change to your sound directory.
2.
Type
DIAGNOSE
and press <Enter>.
