The problem that you are having with sonicx-treme is related to the
fact that sonicX uses EMS memory. Not every computer is configured for
ems memory. To allow your computer to use ems memory, you must put the
 following two lines in your config.sys file.

DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS 
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE 4000 RAM
If your having any trouble then remember that config.sys is located at
c:\config.sys you can open up config.sys with notepad. Now once this is
done, save config.sys and restart your computer. Now select sonicx.exe
and right click on it to select properties. Go to the memory page, and
under the EMS section, select Auto. Make sure that it isn't on None.
  Now it should run with out any trouble
