If a Sound Card is Sound Blaster compatible, it generally sets the 
BLASTER environment variable to its compatible values.

You can see whether the BLASTER variable has been set by going 
to the dos prompt and typing SET and pressing  enter.

 If there is a variable looking something like "BLASTER=A240 I10 
D3" (It need not be the same values, this was just an example from 
my SB compatible soundcard)  then MAXI Sound is SB compatible 
and if the settings are correct you can setup allegro by using the 
settings above (A is port,I is the interrupt,D is the DMA setting).

BTW when you are running under Windoze some PNP soundcards 
only set the SB compatible environmental settings when  you 
"Restart in MSDOS mode" so you might see wether this is the 
case.

Hope This Helps,
Kalum
