AWE Cards in DOS mode:

To run AWE cards in DOS mode you need to load some drivers from the CDROM or disk that came with it. The two things you really need are CTCM.EXE and AWEUTIL.EXE. To get them to work you add the following lines to the AUTOEXEC.BAT (AUTOEXEC.DOS):
SET SOUND=C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\CTSND
SET MID=SYNTH:1 MAP:E MODE:0
CD \WINDOWS
CTCM
C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\CTSND\AWEUTIL
IF CDROM is Needed (Quake), you need to load the CONFIG.SYS driver that came with the CDROM (or download it from the web) and then add the line:
LH /L:1 MSCDEX.EXE /D:MSCD001 /V /M:8
to the AUTOEXEC.BAT (AUTOEXEC.DOS note CONFIG.DOS maybe the name for CONFIG.SYS). The above won't work for WOLFENSTIEN 3D, you'll need to edit the CTCM.CFG file (generally in C:\WINDOWS) to set A220 I7 D1 (other stuff doesn't matter). That is also true of some other DOS stuff (Lemmings).
