yes - you need to D/L the lib executable thats used... GTK has theirs, others like Allegro, FMOD etc... all have their own.

The sticky note at the top of the LIBRARIES sub-forum here have links to all the 3rd party lib dev websites.

(its really just a question, not some kind of hint to an answer, btw - I have no clue - just remember what a pain it was managing driver/memory in the old dos days - and SB drivers were usually a must have).
