The mobo is a asustek tx97. I found in the pci menu in bios a setting about pci latency clock: it's set to "32" I tried to reduce the number and the corrupt sound happened in lower resolution too. :s-face: Buying a ISA card...if I think that when I was a child I exchanged an isa awe32 for this card …

Come on guys...always the same story: is it so difficult to read the rules? Simply abandonware is NOT supported here so is it not so smart to use that magic word here.

unluckily...no. I'm not so expert in this but these games are not hardware accelerated (voodoo), do I lack some s3 virge dos drivers or vesa driver maybe?

All is normal with vga mode. The games affected until now …

yes, tested and working with other games. As seen using dxdiag some time ago in a previous win98 installation where I used directx 8 (and same problem with the game here), the primary card (an s3 virge dx/gx) is compatible until direct3d 7 (the s3 failed the direct3d 8 test) and the voodoo direct3d …

There isn't a config menu where to tell the game to use voodoo2 as 3d card. When I go fullscreen it keeps using …

That's a cool thread Keropi. I tried usbaspi5 and it says it cannot find hardware. I'll try with other sys files when I have time :D However I found a workaround. The system is a multiboot dos/windows98se so when I have to move big archives I start the pc using w98 (the usb interface works here) and …

Mau1wurf1977 I suggest to try with other versions of the dos drivers. My sbpci128 didn't work with sbpci128 drivers (an error message like your audigy card, even after messing with ini file in the same way as you did). After trying a lot of drivers I discovered creative released my card with the …

thanks for the help Gamecollector but still no luck. And I have 2 cdrom drives on the same ide channel. I'll simply switch the master/slave jumpers on the 2 drives. Reading that microsoft document, the only solution. thanks Davros

Nope. It just creates 1 (mscd000 as example) (and it found 2 cdrom devices) and it assign the drive letter sequentially. I use generic cdrom driver oakcdrom.sys So unluckily what you said doesn't work.

Lol I solved my problem with cdaudio. The cause was something I never thought about before...the mpc cable!!! I tried to change it with another I had from an old broken drive and voila, it worked. I can now hear audio tracks sound. The guilty cable seems intact but it did not work. weird. Ps: better …
