2. In the Open box, type "system.ini" (without the quotation marks), and then
  click OK.

3. On the Search menu, click Find.

4. Type "[386enh]" (without the quotation marks), and then click Find Next.

5. When you locate the [386enh] section, scroll down to view the contents of the

  device=rt32vox.vxd

6. On the File menu, click Save.

third-party program no longer functions properly after you perform these steps,
contact the software manufacturer to inquire if an updated version of the driver
is available.
