Although no special software or drivers are required to run DOS games and multimedia software
on your computer, programs like this will normally have setup options when you install them.
When you're installing them, you should select the "SoundBlasterTM" option. Most newer
software will automatically configure itself so you won't need to worry about port settings, etc.
Older software may ask for setup parameters at installation. For these programs, select
"SoundBlasterTM" with port settings at 220, IRQ set to 7, and DMA channel set to 1.

Connecting Audio Equipment
The microphone and line-in ports on the WinBookXP5 only function when the Stereo Audio
Card is installed. Without the Stereo Audio Card installed, the line-out and built-in speakers will
only provide PC audio and modem sound. There are Line In and Speaker Out mini phone jacks
and a volume control dial on the left-hand side of the computer below the floppy disk drive. You
can plug any external audio source that uses a standard mini phone plug into the Line In jack,
including most any stereo or mono external microphone.
You can connect the Speaker Out jack to either self-amplified speakers, non-amplified speakers,
or headphones. To avoid hurting your ears, be sure to first set the audio volume to minimum
when you plug in headphones, and then adjust the volume to a comfortable level. The internal
amplifier can produce volumes which can damage your ears, so use care when adjusting the
volume.
