    Playing MIDI in DOS

    Currently I have the standard sound driver installed for DOS (VPC2007 SP1).
    The player in win3.1 can play back any .wav files, but not .midi files. The
    XP media player, on the other hand, can play back the same midi files. So I
    think it's win3.1 driver issue.

    I currently have setup as follows:
    1) inside MIDI Mapper, I have General MIDI
    2) I have MT32 for patch maps
    3) I have Key Maps as +1 octave

    Inside Drivers, I have the following:
    Ad Lib
    Creative Labs Sound Blaster 1.5
    GSM 6.10 Audio CODEC
    MIDI Mapper
    Timer
    Universial Draw Handler
    [MCI] MIDI Sequencer
    [MCI] Sound

    Also, may I bring back my previous VGA questions here.
    The problem was I couldn't use printmaster properly. The startup screen
    looked skewed. I had tried many other settings (as well as UNIVBE) to no
    avail.
    Does anyone have any idea?
    Thanks
    Jack
