I don't know what kind of program you are using, but it writes YMF754B and then DS-1S in one line, it's impossible, since DS-1S is YMF744: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaha_YMF7xx Did you tried to manually change the IRQ to 5 in Windows?

For Pentium laptops, I prefer to only use Windows 98 because it supports usb and is more versatile in case I want to switch the hard drive from an old laptop to a new one and vice versa. For 486 and lower Win 3.11 is fine enough.

Just ran JOYDV.COM with PCJOY2 and Street Fighter works fine as well as other games. I tried with PC Propad 4 and Interact ProPAD, so this could be Gravis issue? Are you sure, that your gamepad works?
