Re: Issues with 3-D Ultra Pinball 1 music

VxD drivers are allegedly more compatible with games. As far as I know, the AWE64 only has VxD drivers for Windows 98, so I don't think WDM drivers are an option with this card.

Wow, failed Direct X 3D. I had run those tests before, but this time a different result. On Direct Draw the white object bounced frantically fast. On Direct 3D, the object spun at high speed then froze and locked up my computer. I'll try to find out hat all that means. Thanks for the suggestion, …

I just tried your suggestion. Unfortunately, it didn't fix my problem. Toggling the music off and on just causes the game to play the main menu music instead of the table music. Has anyone managed to get the music for this table to work correctly?

Try running the graphics tests in DxDiag and see if they run correctly.
Issues with 3-D Ultra Pinball 1 music
Posted on 2021-04-13, 14:11
I'm having trouble getting the music on my AWE64 under Windows 98. There is this very loud hanging note that plays on the Mine table. The hanging note issue seems to go away if I use WDM drivers on other cards, but I've heard that WDM sound card drivers are not as good as VxD drivers under Win98.

What drivers are you using for the ATI Radeon 9550? Also, what version of Windows are you running?

I figured out how to get it to work. I had to open the Desktop Themes application and apply a desktop theme for the installer to detect it and copy all of the files.

Did you install the chipset drivers? Have you tested the reference Voodoo3 drivers? What version of DirectX is installed?

When I try to install the theme pack included on the Dungeon Keeper Gold CD under Windows 98, the installer fails to detect the Windows 95 Plus! features and doesn't copy all of the desktop theme files. Does anyone know how to get this working under Windows 98? Do I have to install the Windows 98 …

Diablo II and Warcraft 3 are not free. Blackthorne, The Lost Vikings, and Rock N' Roll Racing are. I think StarCraft classic and StarCraft 2 are also free.

If you decide to go the ScummVM route, I would recommend updating it to the latest version. The version included with the GOG release is several years old now and isn't as good as the latest version.

Cap'n Crunch's Crunchling Adventure. I remember completely maxing out my crunchling and after recently finding the cd and playing it again, I have no idea why I played the game as long as I did. I also remember thinking the graphics were good. Probably should have left this one alone.

Re: AWE64 ISA Value driver CD questions

Whoops... What I meant was that I haven't been able to find any other mention of the disc anywhere else other than the one on archive.org, which doesn't really say much about it. I'm curious to know if anyone else has this CD and if they know anything about it.
AWE64 ISA Value driver CD questions

I have an interesting copy of the AWE64 driver CD. It looks like the one posted here https://archive.org/details/AWE64_ISA_Value_Part_Number_95792 . Like the one linked, it appears to be missing several programs present on other CDs, and is completely missing the Windows 3.1 drivers. Does anyone …
