Run AC97.EXE on a system with an Ensoniq AudioPCI (Creative Sound Blaster PCI), VIA or Intel AC'97 audio controller. On the first stage, audio controller information will be displayed on screen. On the second stage, AC'97 codec registers corresponding to optional features will be probed, and a register dump will be displayed and saved to CODbbddf.BIN where bb=bus, dd=device, f=function where the controller is located.

The optional -s parameter makes the second stage silent, only saving the codec register dump to file, which is useful if multiple audio controllers are being probed at once.
