I have a PS/2 model 50, with microchannel ports, which pretty much precludes
my being able to use Sound Blaster...  I do, however, have the Covox 
Voice Master system, which gives me 8 bin D/A conversion.

Modplay simply *won't* run, however, and I can't seem to figure out why...
(the new and old versions do the same; load the mod file, play the first few
 notes, and freeze)
Scream Tracker (sigh) does support the covox device, and as far as I can tell,
is the *only* such 'ware about... (modplay won't go for it)

but, thanks anyway, for all your help!
