2.0.0 ****************** CHAPTER 2. - DESCRIPTION ************************
The latest version of the SBDIG.ADV driver contains routines designed
to correct undocumented "Halt DMA transfer" problems with Sound
Blaster cards.
Unfortunately these routines cause lockup problems with SBOS. The -O1
switch on SBOS is designed to compensate for this, however this
option conflicts with Privateer.
The file AILPATCH.ZIP allows you to search files for these routines
and disable them, allowing SBOS to operate properly.
3.0.0 ********************* CHAPTER 3. - USAGE ***************************
To use this patch,
* Change to the install directory of the software you are having trouble
with (e.g. CD C:\PRIVATER)
* Unzip this program into the install directory of the software you are
having trouble with (e.g. PKUNZIP A:\AILPATCH )
* Run AILPATCH, specifying the file name of the sound driver
(e.g. AILPATCH SBDIG.ADV) or the name of the file containing the sound
driver (e.g. AILPATCH SOUND.TRE)
* You should no longer have any lockup problems.
NOTE: For Privateer, you must specify SOUND.TRE as the filename, since
this file contains all of the sound drivers.
