I had some complication getting MIDI to work on my PC, I had TinyXP installed which was missing the GM.DLS as well as some DX files. Is there some kind of alternative MIDI system(a bit like the KxAudio system which I also might try), or a way to push programs into choosing a certain device?

Failing that, the only thing I can suggest is to make sure that you have an up-to-date (or not corrupt, even) version of cncs232.dll in your Windows/System/ folder. It's a very strange problem indeed. //

Well that's the applications fault - are you sure you haven't got "Play Music" unchecked, or changed the options to not play mids? http://soundcloud.com/normbo - Listen to my music.

EDIT: this solution is unlikely, as MMF is supposed to take the MIDI driver currently in use, not take the sound font and use custom functions to play music with it. Edited by the Author.
