Success!!! In DOS went into mixer settings and turned the CD section on, no problem. Many thanks for the tip!

Launching in win98 music works but booting into dos and starting game it doesn't. Installed from original disk and sound setup worked fine. When in game under sound options 8 track player is on so out of ideas. System Specs: P3 450, 256mb, Voodoo 3000, SB AWE PnP Note! Using Phil's DOS mode pack/PIF …

Appreciate the comments and ideas. Went to a local Micro Center and they had an arcade joystick assembly but it's seemed to be suited for a standalone cabinet not simply plugging into a pc. Came across this site: https://shop.xgaming.com/ X-arcade's products might work except they're so darn huge …
Mame, so it begins.......

The lure of nostalgia has led me down this rabbit hole as I finally found (maybe!) a way to play an arcade game I obsessed over back in the late eighties. That would be John Elway's Team Quarterback by Leyland. There's no telling how many quarters/hours I sacrificed to play this game but had me …

I have a Logitech Wingman Extreme Digital but it requires "sorcery" to calibrate it and wears my arm out after lengthy sessions. What do you all out there prefer? It can be USB or 15 pin, mainly using it for win98 games.

Happened upon an article on this game in CGW and decided to buy it thru GOG. Interesting game and works no problem in win10 but as I enjoy inflicting pain on myself decided to copy the install over to my XP & win98 systems. Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't and this is the latter of …

My P3 450 based system (see sig) handles TR1, Descent 3, Quake 3 & Rune no problem. That covers 1996-2000 I think.

I'm in the same boat, looking for a bigger case for my high end P4 win98 rig. Been hitting the usual outlets ebay, fb marketplace, yard sales and flea markets. Ebay is the last resort due to high shipping costs but saw a few that were interesting. This Zalman case is tempting: https://www.amazon.com …

Ended up trying the 30.82 nvidia drivers and it's working fine now! Didn't mess with the sound settings, left at default. Sound card is 1st generation Audigy.

Looking into getting this too. GOG has it on sale but leaning towards a physical copy like you. Note that there are two different games named "Prey". The original one from 2006 (which is what I'm playing) and a completely unrelated game from 2017. What GOG and Steam offer is the 2017 version. The …

Recently bought Prey (2006) so I'll be playing it for the first time. For reference, this game is no longer available on digital storefronts due to licensing issues or some such. I got a physical copy, specifically the Sold Out budget re-release, which comes with the PDF manual and the latest …
