STARTUP.SYS
VIA 8233 Startup Sound driver.
BASEDEV=STARTUP.SYS <parameters>
An AC97 adaptation of the "SoundBlaster Startup Sound Driver" by Robert Muchsel. All the driver does is randomly playing a short tune during OS/2 startup (then it uninstalls itself, hence consuming no memory).
Besides serving as an amusement, the driver may also be useful in locating IRQ sharing problems - if the MMPM/2 driver, VIAUDD.SYS, does not work while STARTUP.SYS does, the IRQs should be examined for conflicts.
The driver requires a 14.xxx kernel.

- /SV: - Set PC Speaker volume to n% (0 to 100). Default is /SV:60.
