MOZART.SYS, Mozart Device Driver - Copyright (c) 1995 Robert Muchsel
Release 007
Initializes Mozart Sound cards for OS/2
---------------------------------------
Shareware: DM 20.-/US$ 12.50 (see end of this file).
This OS/2 device driver initializes your Mozart sound card so that
the OS/2 Soundblaster driver can be loaded. CD-ROM and Game Ports
can be enabled.
Installation
============
The Mozart driver loads before the MMOS/2 driver and configures
the Mozart sound card.
Copy MOZART.SYS to your \OS2 or \ direcory on the OS/2 boot drive.
If the driver finds a Mozart card and initialization is successful,
you'll hear a cuckoo (else an error message is displayed).
(NB: Registered users can turn of the cuckoo).
Some noise and hissing before the cuckoo is normal.
Command Line Arguments
----------------------
The default configuration is:
- Version 2 Sound Card
/A:220 I/O Address 220
/D:1 DMA channel 1
/I:5 Interrupt 5
- CD-ROM disabled
- Game Port disabled
The driver understands several command line arguments:
BASEDEV=MOZART.SYS [/1] [/A:Addr] [/D:DMA] [/G] [/I:Int]
[/E:x or /M or /P or /S [/CA:CDAddr] [/CI:CDInt]]
where:
/1 Initialize v1 Sound Card (default: v2)
/A: I/O Address: 220 (default), 240
/D: DMA Channel: 1 (default), 3
/G Game Port enabled (default: disabled)
/I: Interrupt: 5 (default), 7, 11
CD-ROM Interface (default: disabled):
/E: ATAPI CD-ROM: 1 (=primary), 2 (=secondary)
/M Mitsumi CD-ROM
/P Panasonic CD-ROM
/S Sony CD-ROM
/Cx CD-ROM Parameter, where:
/CA: I/O Address: 320, 330, 340 (default)
/CI: Interrupt: 9, 10, 11 (default: none)
Examples:
BASEDEV=MOZART.SYS /A:220 /I:5 /D:1 /S /CA:320 /CI:11 /G
BASEDEV=MOZART.SYS /A:240 /I:11 /D:1 /M /CA:340 /CI:10
BASEDEV=MOZART.SYS /G
BASEDEV=MOZART.SYS /1 /G
BASEDEV=MOZART.SYS /E:2 /G
Configuring OS/2 - CONFIG.SYS:
------------------------------
BASEDEV=MOZART.SYS /G
REM Following lines added by OS/2 installation:
DEVICE=x:\MMOS2\SBP2D2.SYS 1 1 5 220 4 /N:SBAUD1$
DEVICE=x:\MMOS2\AUDIOVDD.SYS SBAUD1$
Configuring OS/2 - AUTOEXEC.BAT:
--------------------------------
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1
SET SOUND=x:\MOZART
Notes:
* You must __NOT__ load the DOS device driver MZTINIT.SYS under OS/2
(well, you can, but you have been warned). This also applies to
MZTMODE and MZTVOL.
* If the MMPM/2 driver won't load ("Soundblaster not found"), try
another version of the MMPM/2 driver (e.g. from TBOS2.ZIP).
* MIDI doesn't seem to work properly on OPL4 cards (this is a
problem of the OS/2 Soundblaster driver).
* If OS/2 traps when loading the ATAPI CDROM driver, get a fixed
version of the ATAPI driver from IBM.
* Under WinOS/2, you must use the Soundblaster drivers provided by
OS/2. Mozart specific drivers ans programs will not work.
* OS/2 Warp: When losing sound in seamless WinOS/2 sessions, install
the fix from the SNDWORKS.ZIP package by Michael K. Schumell.
* MOZART.SYS loads before all other BASEDEVs which don't have a
.SYS extension. If your CD-ROM driver has a .SYS extension, ensure
MOZART.SYS comes first in CONFIG.SYS.
* There are different versions of the Mozart sound card. The driver
defaults to v2 cards (OTI-601E, Mozart OPL4, BTC Mozart A-16), but
can be configured to support v1 cards (Raysound, Mozart OPL3,
Sonicsound).
The suggested method is to try the driver without '/1' first.
* OEM/Custom versions available! I'm substituting the cuckoo with
any other sound (e.g. advertisment) for anybody ordering more than
20 licences. Call for techincal details.

-> Try the /1 switch if your card is not found.
New in Rel. 003
===============
MOZART.SYS is now a BASEDEV driver.
-> The CD-ROM interface will now be initialized before the CD-ROM
driver is loaded.
New in Rel. 002
===============
Command line arguments are now supported.
-> Game Port can be enabled
-> CD-ROM interface can be enabled

Licence, Registering
====================
Developing this driver has taken a considerable amount of time. I'm
sure you'll honor my work, so there are no restrictions in the
shareware version!
If you register, you will be able to turn off the cuckoo.
You may try this program for 30 days. If you want to continue to use
it, you must register. If you don't like the driver, simply DEL it.
!! Warning: If you are using shareware without registering, you'll
!! certainly descend into Hell some day. Even if you don't bother,
!! please register.
Please use the registration form supplied.
Optionally, you can order a disk with the driver.
