interesting... too much custom made, looks like an industrial/controller pc converted to desktop or something

^ True but I have seen ATX1.0 psus that don't have the -5v line (mainly cheap ones that came with pre-built systems, plenty of them here...) It would worth checking this also just to rule out possibilities....

a thought occurred: what about the -5v line on the psu? both cards AFAIR need -5v, maybe (most likely) Stojke uses an ATX psu without this line?

Either both sound cards are faulty or the motherboard is. - Do the cards work in another pc? - Do other cards work on your motherboard? you dont't need anything special to put a SB in a pc, even if there is an IRQ conflict that won't stop the pc from booting.

just a small update, Chuck(G) notified me he received the rev0 card I sent him, all we need now is to wait patiently and hopefully he will find out what is wrong 😀

I can't comment to the Basic Midi stuff but I assume they might work with some ol program or was a common setup or something along those lines... It's a pity OPLx goes so much unnoticed but I speculate ms did not bother writing more maps/settings for them since the "serious" user of the era would …

yep at the end I restored from my install disks AdamP ... and it was way more easier to add the SB16 info to it than doing the opposite to the sb16 .cfg

@Great Hierophant: I guess you are correct but there is abysmal difference between the 2 configs... the stock 3.x midimap.cfg has a complete setup of patch maps and key maps and redirects the lapc-i channels to mt-32 patch maps - and there is a specific one called "mt32 percussion" for the one you …

I resorted to manually add the SB16 information in the original 3.11 midimap.cfg that has extended setups and patches... In case anyone cares in the future, I have attached the file here: have SB16 installation complete and overwrite midimap.cfg, then just overwrite with the one in the zip to have …

Hiya! today I installed win3.11 on my p200mmx dos machine... everything runs OK but I don't really get the MIDI MAPPER stuff... let me explain with nice pictures :happyhappy: a : this is the midi mapper without the SB16 installed, it has some default devices and I just added LAPC-I (driver in …

So these are patches to make dosbox more compatible to install win98 in it? Don't get me wrong, but what is so special having win98 on DOSbox? the minute you go windows things like cga/ega/vga/soundblaster are not important and there are way better virtualizers for windows out there... DOSBox is ... …

yep slave slots... my Soyo SY-4SAW2 mobo has 2 of them: the last pci one and the single VLB one, both have "SLAVE" silkscreened next to them... maybe it was a cost-related trick back then to add more slots and make the mobo more competitive in the market, it's not like many ppl would fill up the …
