The options H and P mean that you have a SB-16, so you have a "H"igh DMA 
and a "P" something that he doesn't know. The program is intended for SbPro 
or other 8-bit sound board.

About the program hanging up on the end... i don't know, mine does the 
same, but i also tested it on a SB16. Maybe that's the reason; has 
anybody tried it on a SBPRO? does it do the same thing?
