SOUND or BLASTER environment could not be found.
The command to set up the SOUND or BLASTER
environment might not be included in the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
When you install your audio card's software, the
commands are automatically added to the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file so that both environment strings
are set up when your system restarts.
To add the command to set up the BLASTER
environment in the respective system files, run
DIAGNOSE (See "Understanding the Installation" on
page B-1.).
To set up the SOUND environment, insert the statement
SET SOUND=C:\SB16 into the AUTOEXEC.BAT
file using a text editor. Reboot your system.
Error message "Out of environment space".
The system environment space is used up.
Add the statement SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM
/E:512 /P to the CONFIG.SYS file. /E defines a new
size for the system environment space. You can choose
a higher value if the environment size is already
512 bytes. (Normally, the next value is 1024 bytes.)
For details, refer to your DOS manual.
