Re: [RTTY] Re: ÄRTTYÅ RITTY 4.5 Issue

RiTTY has it's own driver.

mscdex.exe is the driver for the CD-rom, not the sound board and
is of course not necessary.

You don't need more than the low 640k to run Ritty, so
other statesments are not necessary..

PnP SB-boards need a statement and a driver for the PnP-function.
