It's a board made by Intel for DELL (and probably other OEMs such as Gateway), you should be able to easily identify it based on the layout. No, it's just socket 7, the Pentium II would not be supported by that chipset. The brown slot is for a cache module (COAST) to add more L2 cache to the board. …

I am in win98 se but using pure DOS If it uses redbook audio, then this is impossible. Or at least, it would require hardware that is not readily available, as in https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=67897 . You can probably do it if you run the game from an MS-DOS prompt when Windows 98 is …

It added some lines to my config.sys and autoexec then just using set blaster. …

I imagine that what you are hearing is the result of clipping . Try lowering the volume levels on the line-in or the master input . If the static is only on the MT-32's audio, try lowering the volume on the MT-32 itself . Do also take into account that a CT1600 is not even close to being high …
