This file contains additional information to supplement the 
manual.  Please read all the sections before you proceed with 
the installation.


This file contains the following sections:

   1.  DOS drivers 
   2.  Full-duplex constraints
   3.  Online documentation
   4.  Acknowledgement


1. DOS DRIVERS 

   During custom installation, you have the options to include the 
   following DOS drivers to your CONFIG.SYS file.

       DEVICE=C:\SB16\DRV\CTSB16.SYS /UNIT=0 /BLASTER=A:220 I:5 D:1 H:5
       DEVICE=C:\SB16\DRV\CTMMSYS.SYS

   where :

   BLASTER=A:220 I:5 D:1 H:5 indicates the hardware resources used
   by your audio card.

   Please note that your Plug and Play Configuration Manager (such as
   the Intel or the Creative Configuration Manager) must be loaded
   before your DOS audio drivers.


2. FULL-DUPLEX CONSTRAINTS

   Your audio card supports full-duplex recording and playback.
   However, to make full use of this feature, please make sure you
   observe the following constraints:

   a. Start only one session of simultaneous playback and recording.  
   b. Use the same sampling rate for both operations.
   c. Preferably play back and record audio files which are in
      uncompressed (that is, Pulse Code Modulation or PCM) wave
      format.
   d. Reduce the sampling rate for both operations if your audio
      playback and recording session is too slow.
   e. Start your Windows in enhanced and not standard mode.
   f. Check that the version number of the CSPMAN.DLL file in your
      Windows system directory is 3.51 or later.


3. ONLINE DOCUMENTATION

   To help you access information on the applications in this package
   easily, we have compiled the online documentation so that it can be
   accessed from your audio card's group window. Just click on the
   icon(s) with names that start with the words "How to Use".


4. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

   The included version of SB16FM.DRV is from Voyetra Technologies.
