In CONTROL.INI, add
[UserInstallable.drivers]
Wave=speaker.drv
[drivers.desc]
speaker.drv=Sound Driver for PC-Speaker
In SYSTEM.INI, add
[Drivers]
Wave=speaker.drv
[speaker.drv]

I am having problems with my win.ini file. I use my pc speaker for .wav sound
and currently I have had a disk problem which mucked up my win.ini file, since
then I can't seem to get any sounds to work. I have reinstalled the pc speaker
driver and things still won't work.
Can someone who has Windows 3.1
Uses PC Speaker for wavs
Look at my win.ini AND system.ini file and give me some suggestions as to fixing
them. It also has other problems (I.E. Fonts) so ANY suggestions would be more
than welcome :-)
Both are below:
Thanks, Ian.

Here is a copy of the pertinent parts of the system.ini file that deal
with the speaker.drv.

Timer=timer.drv
Wave=speaker.drv

As for yor font problems I noticed that several of your fonts are
missing part of their extension. They say .FO instead of .FOT or .FON.
Hope this helps.
