		     Bravo MS Re-Installing Sierra Audio Rack


PROBLEM

The Sierra Audio Rack Mixer may not function correctly once the user 
reformats the Hard Disk Drive and re-installs the software, using 
the diskettes created from the ASTDU utility program.  

After the software has been re-installed, when the user runs the Sierra Audio 
Rack, some options may be missing from the Sierra Mixer screen.  
These include the Slider Bars for the Wave, Midi, CD, Line-In, Microphone, 
Speaker, Treble, and Bass.
