SUBJECT: Always load SBOS (with no options) before installing the
         game to your hard drive.

There is no SoundBlaster (hereafter referred to as SB) or AdLib board in
the system until GUS is told do be a compatible sound board by SBOS!

Many games allow the user to select the hardware options (vga, mouse,
SOUND CARD etc.) right after the initial software installation.  If SBOS
is not loaded into memory at this time, the hardware setup options will
not detect a SB or compatible sound board.

Sometimes the game setup will only detect an AdLib and will probably crash
the system when it attempts to look for a sound board.
