Soundcard-Test DOS startup files

This is an example autoexec.bat that I use to test various soundcards. Each menu loads it’s drivers for the corresponding soundcard.
Note that the names like :AWE32 must have an existing menu entry in config.sys, in this case [AWE32].

I also use common drivers like ctmouse (low mem mouse driver) and shsucdx (low mem cdrom driver) and a lowmem doskey driver.


@echo off
SET DIRCMD=/p /o:gne
SET TEMP=C:\DOS
SET PATH=C:\DOS;C:\drivers;C:\packer;
SET CTCM=c:\dos
PROMPT $p$g
GoTo %config%
:AWE32
SET SOUND=C:\SB16
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 E620 T6
SET MIDI=SYNTH:1 MAP:E MODE:0

echo on
GoTo end
:CTCM
SET SOUND=C:\SB16
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 E620 T6

GoTo end
:NOS
:HIMEM
:NOMEM
LH c:\dos\DOSKEY.COM
LH c:\dos\CTMOUSE.EXE /R2
GoTo end
:end
@echo on


And the corresponding config.sys
