Dear friends,

  A lot of people have been complaining that the emulator BRMSX (produced by
Ricardo Bittencourt) it doesn't play sound in Windows Millenium (what also
happens with many other DOS programs). As the definitive solution for this
problem seemed it was not still found, I decided to research a solution for
the problems. I discovered that Windows have a configuration program that
allows to include variables in the DOS environment (because to place them in
AUTOEXEC it didn't solve the problem), this way, the solution was easy:

1) in the Start menu, select Execute and type: msconfig
2) an "Advanced Config Utility" will be run (which not is available in no
place that I have noticed), go until the "Environment" and simply add the
lines of configuration of your sound card. In my case I added the following
lines:

  Variable   Value
  BLASTER    A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 T6
  MIDI       SYNTH:1 MAP:E

  Usually these are the default configurations of most popular SoundBlasters
and compatible. The System then should be restarted and after that BRMSX
(and any DOS programs) it will usually work with sound.
  And case Windows when being restarted exhibits a message saying that you
are executing Windows in the way of Selective Initialization (or something
like that), it is enough to mark the item "not to show this warning again"
and press OK (that is only more one of those ridiculous warnings of
Windows).
  Now, the BRMSX is already my primary emulator again. It is EXCELLENT!!!
