Sierra DACBLAST/SBSCI32 driver updates

FYI, the "DACBLAST" and "SBSCI32" driver updates at http://www.sierrahelp.com/Patches-Updat ... ivers.html have exactly the same contents, according to the date stamps and CRC checksums displayed by 7-Zip's archive browser.

It might be worth combining them into the same section of the list to avoid confusion, even if both files are maintained for archival purposes.

Also, this driver crashes DOSBox SVN and ECE when I try to use it with the GOG version of Quest for Glory 4. I was hoping it might address DOSBox ECE issues with the stock DACBLAST driver included with the game:
  • No PCM sound when DOSBox ECE SB model set to sb16 (sbpro2 and lower work, and SVN works with sb16)
  • PCM sound sometimes stops working mid-game
I'll probably try just switching to the included Thunderboard driver for a bit instead.

Then they were the same on the Sierra FTP. I'll have to remember to do this when I get some time. I'll look into the QfG4 issue when I get a chance.
