I say, It is quite a collection sir!

I have an interesting problem with X-Com 1 and 2. Enemy Unknown doesn't have sound at all. Nothing. No effect, and no music either. I've tried different settings of course from the setup. TFTD has sound effects and FM music as well, but cannot initialize my external Roland SC-8820 module. All I can …

Hi all I've got an another question. Is there a tool, for access all kind of directories / files under a network share? From Windows 3.11, I cannot see all of the files due to different kind of limitations (invalid characters, more then 8.3 names, etc). I've tried DOSLFN, without success.

Probably this is the easiest way, to use some kind of audio-switch. Simply turning the volume knob on the MT-32 won't help, because it's can be override from midi commands. The SC-55 has standalone volume knob, but I don't want to play with that. I've just had an another idea. The PC of course has a …

I know Malik, that I can connect them this two way. My question was, how can I do, that only one (the one I want to) unit will play. Both of them will get the midi message, so I guess, both of them will play simultaneously, until I disable one someway. But it's still theoretical, because I didn't …

I haven't tested this yet neither. Probably I can do this magic with SC-55. Imagine yourself as a musician, who has a lot of MIDI device, and all of them does different thing at the same time. There must be a way to do this. The best would be, if I could automatize someway, via sysex commands in a …

Hello all Is it possible, to use MT-32 and SC-55 simultaneously? I've got a Roland MPU-401 card, with two MIDI out. I've never tried, but probably the two units will get the same midi command, so all of them will sound. How can I get rid of this? Is there a way, to address only one of them? For …

Hi all! I've been searching the net for some days, and can't find a good comparison, what is the main differences between SMC 8216 and SMC 8416. Of course 8416 newer. Of course, 8416 has newer controller IC. Of course new layout. Also, 8416 lacks the possibility of AUI connector (not much waste for …

That not a SCSI card that a Network Card I think that was used as a Hub Management Interface That would be sad, because I don't need a NIC. :sad: From first look, it's absolutely an SCSI card. Has it's own bios, cpu (which according to google, was used in scsi cards), 50 pin scsi-like internal …

I did not wanted to open a new topic, instead of let me ask my question here: Anyone can recognize this SCSI board? http://n1.vatera.hu/photos/8f/15/c975_1_big.jpg It's seems to be Novell made. It has i80188 CPU, boot ROM, 50 pin internal connector, bla-bla-bla. But nothing like an exact type-label, …

Elianda, could you post your Gravis Ultrasound 2.x driver installs somewhere? I can only find 3.59 and 4.x 😖 mod: And btw, this is an awesome card... 😳 I have to buy one for this christmas...a surprise for myself 😀

he means that he uses an ISA riser card with 16bit slots, but it is connected on an 8bit slot on the board Yep. Maybe it is better to use a 286 of any type for this "mod-player" scenario...

It's a NEC V20 @ 10 MHz. The ISA buses are 16 bits, but the riser card connects to only a 8 bit bus via the motherboard (or at least, 8 bit like...never know what exactly inside of the riser card) So you think, I should give a try? Let's buy some Gravis then 😎

Hi dudes. I've got a 8086 PC, which will be a "mod-player", with the great support of GLX player. But, of course I need a sound card for this mission... Gravis Ultrasound could be great, because of the less CPU usage...but will it work? The FAQ said: What machines will the GUS work with? You need an …

Hmm...and you opened a new thread for this information? 😒

Option 1, is not a really good one. Lot of old games have different issues by Tseng cards. I changed to a ISA Cirrus Logic card. The speed measured by landmark is the same (ISA bus limit), but the CL is more compatible...maybe even better picture on a tft...but this is a relative thing.

AudioPCI does everything in software. As every other PCI card, without BIOS. When I got my first AudioPCI, I've got a AMD K5-100, and I had no issue with software / performance. And as far as I remember, it worked perfectly from native DOS. he MIDI synth in particular is quite limited in quality …

Is it better than an Ensoniq Audio PCI or SB Live!? Don't think so. The Ensoniq based SB128 was a very good card, from every perspective. SB Live?...that's an another story... Have to check in the future...

Anyone have one or at least used one? Yep, I have...but I borrowed it for sound card tests, not mine 😉 Not tested yet though, but I assume that it will sound exactly same as the other AWE cards. SNR and other quality parameters will be much better hopefully.

So how do I make the SC55 work with a GUS? As far as I know, the GUS cards were never MPU401 compatible, so you can't use SC55 + GUS combo to games from DOS. I was shocked when I realized this, because this is a very basic feature... You can play midi only from Win3.11, using DOS.
