I think apart from PCMCIA drivers Win95 needs drivers to support SD cards. Not sure they exist, however. Just like it needs IDE device drivers to work with CF card(in a PCMCIA adapter). Did your adapter come with own drivers? No, no drivers. But since it is an adapter it should be transparent to …

Imagine a Pico with different sound sources from Adlib to Sound Blaster, GUS, CD emulation (loading ISO files and music/audio files) with CDDA, and all of that using commands to switch from one to the other. Unless that's too much, but that would be cool to have. This is actually what it does. SB, …

That's awesome, Kevin. CD emulation workis amazingly stable and easy to setup. How's that possible that Windows CD player takes over form DOS player? Or am I getting it wrong?

Is there any chance to turn this emulator into a MIDI daughterboard? 1. You can build one for yourself if you want but the license is non-commercial so a commercial product cannot be made with it. 2. Because of the emulator current performance requirements it would not be easy to select a proper …

Re: Cirrus CS4624 dos init - fails after PCMCIA
Posted on 2024-04-08, 16:30
I have a Roland SCP-55; it's a Sound Canvas midi module on a PCMCIA card. There are DOS drivers for both the PCMCIA sockets on the 600X, as well as the SCP-55. I can load the drivers for the PCMCIA and the Roland card works (with glorious sounding music), but at that point the CS4624 will no longer …

How do you get Jazz Jackrabbit running with JEMMEX? I always get: Loader error (0025): cannot initialize It's been said on this thread that the game works with VSBHDA, but I can't get it to work. Other protected mode games like Doom, etc work fine, with sound and all. Do you run the special 16 bit …

Nice! Now I have to add support for selectable COM ports and more baud rates. This will be available on the next release :D Also It shouldn't be hard to add LPT MIDI support, but I have no hardware to test with. And the DreamBlaster S2P is out of stock :S Awesome! That's a feature I'm going to use …

-Roland SCP-55 SoundCanvas and MPU-401 GM device in DOS + digital audio in Win3.x/Win9x I find it very interesting that the SCP-55 is capable of digital audio in addition to wavetable MIDI. How does the sound compare to RAP-10? In fact, with the MCB-3, you got PCM, MPU-401 and Sound Canvas in one. …

BTW, I've been able to add serial-MIDI support, can you test it? Right now is fixed to COM1 and 38400 baud rate. I haven't tested this on a real midi device, but it seems to work fine on my laptop (Retro PC -> Serial port -> Serial-USB adapter -> Windows PC -> "Hairless MIDI<->Serial Bridge" -> …

I join the question about 320x240 as it doesn't work on my Thinkpad 760LD neither with nor without vesa driver. The video card is Trident CYBER9320 1 MB. EDIT: Same is on another laptop with WD90C24A graphics chip.
