Something like this should work:

Code:
mov ah, 2     ; DOS output function
mov dl, 7      ; ASCII 7 = Bell
int $21

Hi Windwakr
The code that Crc (Thanks Crc) converted works fine, but give the same tone, the part marked "This" needs changing, also the delay was too short.
This code for fasm works fine, by changing the Hz you get a higher or lower sound.
Let me know if you want the asm game it comes from.
Code:
org 100hxor ah,ahint 16hcall Beep1xor ah,ahint 16hcall Beep2xor ah,ahint 16hint 0x20Beep1:MOV     [Hz],100hCALL    SoundCALL    DeLayCALL    NOSOUNDRET;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------; Beep tone 2;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Beep2:MOV     [Hz],150hCALL    SoundCALL    DeLayCALL    NOSOUNDRET;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------; Sound;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Sound:MOV BX,[Hz]                       ;ThisMOV AX,34DDHMOV DX,0012HCMP DX,BXJNC DONE1 DIV BXMOV BX,AX IN AL,61HTEST AL,3 JNZ A99OR  AL,3 OUT 61H,ALMOV AL,0B6H OUT 43H,AL A99:MOV AL,BL OUT 42H,ALMOV AL,BH OUT 42H,ALDONE1: RET ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------; Delays;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DeLay:MOV  CX, [MilliS] JCXZ A2A1: CALL DeLaYoneMSLOOP A1 A2: RET ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------;Delay;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DeLaYoneMS: PUSH CX                          ; Save CXMOV  CX, [OneMS]                 ; Loop count into CX B1:LOOP B1                          ; Wait one millisecond POP  CX                          ; Restore CXRET ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------; Turn sound off ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ NOSOUND:IN  AL,61h AND AL,11111100bOUT 61h,AL RET Hz     DW ?MilliS DW 200OneMS  DW 40000

my only complaint with your source is the odd capitalizations in the function names. They require frequent checks to make sure that calls to them are written properly. It's better to use all lowercase IMO Smile

I take your point Crc, its just to make them more readable, i usually cut & past them.
But i will use lowercase next time.

Here is where you can get my game called "pong.zip" with asm code. http://www.falconrybells.co.uk/
Make shore you put the "space.pcx" file in the same dir, as the "pongsst.com" as it as no error checking.
Also on that site is the start of my 32bit pmode os, made with fasm that you can have a look at.

Smile

there is no volume,
you can make volume change via pulse width modulation,
for example bit patterns
00000000 represent 00%
00100100 represent 25%
10101010 represent 50%
11011011 represent 75%
11111111 represent 100%
although loop frequencies differ by cpu clock, and many other things,
it might be accurate on a micro controller - if well calculated.

this is HARDWARE !
non os related, you can work directly with hardware
and this generates Hz !

here is a code:

Code:

org 256

mov ax,440
call sound
xor ax,ax
int 16h
call nosound
int 20h


nosound: ; Silences the speaker.
in al,0x61
and al,0xFC;
out 0x61,al
ret

sound: ; AX = frequency Starts the speaker emiting a sound of a given frequency
mov bx,ax ; RETURNS:  AX,BX,DX = undefined
mov dx,0x12;
mov ax,0x34DC
div bx
mov bl,al
mov al,0xB6;
out 0x43,al
mov al,bl
out 0x42,al
mov al,ah
out 0x42,al
in al,0x61
or al,3
out 0x61,al
ret

    


i can't imagine someone's thoughts when thinking of :

DOS is the computer's brain
no its not, its a microsoft code made with who knows what.
and they are restricting someone to access the computers hardware ports now for example in xp
nice eh?
