I've been trying for a few days now to use an Aydigy 2 Value (sb0400) on Windows 98 SE. I've tried to use the drivers from a few of the cd images on this sites drivers page. I've tried the "Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Install CD", the "Sound Blaster Audigy Install CD for ME/2000/XP" and I've also …

Though it perplexes me that for a new card that was never used the caps are bad. Electrolytic caps can and will go bad in storage, especially if the device in question has never been powered on or has been sitting unused for a very long time. My experience in dealing with vintage audio tells me …

That may be, luckily those caps are all the same 16v 22uf, so if the it isn't the beginning of power delivery I could just replace them with higher quality Nichicon's. Though it perplexes me that for a new card that was never used the caps are bad. Edit: they are not all 22's and I think I have …

I just got a New open box Audigy ZS 2, however the right channel is not as powerful and the left, it sounds as though the low end is weak. Now I plan on replacing these caps to see if it corrects the issue, however I don't have much info to go off of here. This is what I found on Digi-Key so far …

Okay, so the problem is fixed. Describing the solution is gonna be embarrassing. I went into CTMIX.CFG and set bass and treble back to their default settings, and turned CD Audio gain down from x2 to x1. That fixed pretty much everything - no more crunchy SFX in GTA, no more peaking in the intro …

Your AUTOEXEC.BAT is pointing to IRQ7 and your CTPNP.cfg is pointing to IRQ5 SET BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 H5 P330 T4 [SB16] Disable=0 Csn=1 CardId=CTL0026 Serial=1006ada9 LogDev=0 Port0=220 Port1=330 Port2=388 [b]Irq0=5[/b] Dma0=1 Dma1=5 Could cause issues with games that use the SET BLASTER line IRQ7 is …

Might be a resource conflict, or a faulty card, I've had to replace capacitors on my CT 2950, but it was more low / poor audio output than the issues you describe. Are you using drivers installed by the DOS 7.10 installer? Do you have the bios and resources configured? for example nothing else …

Posted on 2020-05-22, 12:47
There are third party drivers that should work in Windows 9x . See my earlier post in this thread . They are at least woryh a try before trying a PCI controller (which I also suggested as an option). Yeah, I've not tried them myself but certainly worth a try, I should have added "If the above …

I don't have answers but I'm curious whether an atapi CD driver and mscdex work in DOS mode? I thought the whole point of IDE compatbility mode was to be, well, IDE compatible. So you'd think it would at least work slowly under Windows. Maybe windows has a whitelist of pci ids or something and it …

Only one version, but they don't to my knowledge and testing work under DOS as they can't communicate even in analogue mode, unless you're thinking of the 3D pro and not the freestyle pro(freestyle pro is the gamepad with motion control 3D pro is the joystick) The 3D pro does have limited dos …
Re: Gameport device not connected

In plain DOS, yes, with the Freestyle in analog mode, games just go through the usual joystick calibration routine. I played old flight sims with it, like Wings of Glory, Xwing and Tie Fighter Dos collectors editions, racing games like Indycar, stuff like that. I think there was only one version, …

Will need to try out the Freestyle pro in DOS, that'd be cool, It does need the correct drivers to work in windows though before it'll show up, might need to remove any other sidewinder devices and refresh to get it showing.

Thank you, I'll definitely use Phil's drivers and see if I can get all that going. Would there be a way to either disable the modem or get the drivers for it? I don't like having question marks and the sort in device manager, if you get what I mean. It's sort of an obsessive thing, similar to how I …

Excellent, so not just me, I wonder what the cut off is in terms of CPU speed, Might try later on my PIII 500. Was a bit concerned with this as I've got a little upgrade on the way for my DOS system, ATX SS7 board with onboard YMF715 or 719 audio .

Bit of testing, x-wing doesn't have the problem but seems to use an older imuse version, "SETMUSE" which detects and tests midi just fine, Dark Forces and Tie Fighter both lock up when trying to test with General Midi and also when trying to launch the game without testing, I was incorrect before …
