DR SLEEP's DOOM.PIF SETTINGS: A CURE-ALL FOR DOOM/WINDOWS AILMENTS. Program Filename: D:\DOOM\DOOM.EXE Window Title: Doom Test Optional Parameters: -nosound Start-up Directory: D:\DOOM Video Mem: High Graphics Mem Requirements: KB Req. -1 KB Desired -1 EMS Memory KB Req 0 KB Desired -1 XMS Memory KB Req 0 KB Desired -1 Display Usage: Full Screen Execution: Exclusive Close Window on Exit: Yes (check it) ADVANCED OPTIONS: Background Priority: 100 Foreground Priority: 100 Detect Idle Time: Yes (check it) Memory Options: Leave all blank Other Options: Up to you. I check Alt-Enter and Alt-Escape NOTE: I have -nosound in the Parameters area only because I dislike having to disable Windows sound events and then restart Windows. Mind you, Doom is no fun without the sound. I use these settings only to test levels that I have edited in Windows (which I don't really do that much anymore. I use DEU in DOS). For sound, remove the -nosound parameter and disable Windows sound events in Control Panel. Restart Windows. Doom away. Also, this applies only to Soundblaster cards as far as I know for sure (since it works for mine). Other cards may not be so forgiving. Compatibles should be okay. Hope this works for you. (But let me know if it doesn't. I won't give you money or anything -- I'm just curious.) Dr Sleep CIS:74002,2157 INTERNET:drsleep@delphi.com AOL:drsleep107 23 June 1994
