My PC hangs on SB16 emulation if I have the parallel port disabled in the BIOS. Can you enable the parallel port again? Maybe that will let you boot into Windows 98.

I never had luck with DSOAL, i tried it with Far Cry 2 (because X-fi + Creative Alchemy has some issues on my system with this game) and sound just doesn't feel right, its too "tiny" like there is no bass at all. OpenAL Soft doesn't use LFE because it's (and it was never) intended for *films* and …

Does the Audigy driver enable Soundfont 2.01 operators on the SBLive, or will the SBLive still be restricted to Soundfont 2.0? I'm not familiar with the differences between these soundfont versions, so someone else will have to test that. I forgot to post the instructions on how to check the SF …

I own Lego Island 2 and I found that Creative Labs EAX and EAX2 are found in LEGO Island 2.exe in a hex editor. A Vogons post indicates that Starlancer supports EAX. I did a web search for Msseax.m3d and Msseax2.m3d and listed the games that might support EAX. I don't have these games so I'm not …

Pac-Man All-Stars doesn't have a menu option to select the audio provider, and I don't see an ini file or reg entry either.

American McGee's Alice audio configuration menu allows you to select EAX and EAX2. For Ultim@te Race Pro, the -SB32 can be used if your sound card supports 32 voices according to Ultim@te Race Technical support
