Well, this is a suprise - I have had the same problems with playing MIDI files although my circumstances are somewhat different, perhaps. I have an old but still very useful TP750 Mono for which I purchased one of those IBM 3D PCMCIA Sound Cards. I installed the DOS drivers and have had absolutely no problems at all with any games I care to throw at it, except Dark Forces where the speech is garbled (ideas, anyone?). Recently I did a stupid thing and installed the Windows drivers in place of the IBM Audio Features drivers. Everything worked OK until I tried to use the IBM-provided mixing desk programme - after that, MIDI files would not play and I got the message that the proper drivers were not installed. The only way round this was to completely re-install the drivers from the disks and DO NOT USE the mixing desk programme. In fact, delete it! Manually edit the .INI file if you can understand it. I have the absolutely latest drivers from the IBM FTP site and it made no difference, so perhaps someone from IBM would care to comment, or has anyone got this to work satisfactorily? Regards Dan.
