Assuming everything is jumpered correctly: can you check if the order the devices are connected to the IDE cable makes a difference? That the CF by itself already corrupts isn't a good sign. Does the controller see the CF correctly?

Just did a test run of my new build with a Celeron 266/440EX board with an AGP Savage4 Pro+ 32MB model and can confirm the VSYNC drop issue as well. When I have time I want to try: NOLFBLIM (updated NOLFB) - Enables VSYNC for DOS Games to see if that makes a difference.

Sorry, I have no idea and I'm unsure what it patches. I ever saw a mention that it allowed IRQ's higher than 9 and thus offering better support for the PnP with default settings.

Chasm: The Rift uses non-standard timings for its 320x200 non-VESA mode. I've got a Savage4 with digital out and with this game my screen gave a signal out of bounds type message. After connecting it to my capture device I've noticed it's slightly off, I don't have the exact details. Matrox cards …

I recall this being discussed before, perhaps in a thread with the GUS claiming the Adlib port before init and such. I want to say Simon the Sorcerer, but not sure. Perhaps there is a list of games not working with the OPL2LPT for this exact reason.

I have to check again but my machine is in parts right now. In the setup audio was extremely slow, now I'm not sure if the gameplay was effected.

I don't use UniPCemu, but this slowdown is also there on real hardware when using a clone card.

If it's for games, I would check out: https://www.vogonswiki.com/index.php/List_of_ … sensitive_games If you also keep the 386 I think the only games that are problematic are the later SVGA titles and titles like Quake.

@darry AFAIK there is only one Cancun FX which might be a clone (or vice versa) of the 4 MB version of the Diamond Monster Sound. The 0.5 and 2 MB versions of the Diamond Monster Sound sound completely different (check wavetable.nl and boxpressed SoundCloud).

I think the Cancun FX, the Diamond Monster MIDI (4 MB), the Oksori W32 and the Terratec Maestro 32/96 have the same sounds and these sounds were also supplied with the Terratec EWS64/Guillemot line (maybe Hoontech as well) as a bank or ROM. There are some differences in ROM size and synth used AFAIK …
