DOSBox has partial support for digitized sound played through the PC speaker: - Axe of Rage intro music works - Wizardry 7 sounds work, albeit with popping - Silpheed speech at the beginning of the game doesn't work There are probably better examples that I can't think of at the moment.

It's best to install from inside of DOSBox. If you don't then you're going to have to edit config files to tell the game where to find the CD and installation directory while running inside of DOSBox (unless you mount c c:\ and mount f f:\ -t cdrom so that the same settings and paths will apply to …

1. Try mounting c to c:\oldgames instead of c:\oldgames\tftd. On a real DOS machine you wouldn't be installing games to your root directory, so you shouldn't set it up that way in DOSBox. 2. Make sure that the mount settings (for both the hard drive and CD drive) to install the game from the CD are …

I use Nero for making data and audio CDs from files. I really like that they release frequent updates. You can also probably uninstall and reinstall Nero with a smaller feature set. You don't have to install all the bells and whistles - just the ones you need. The only other tool I've used recently …

You'll need to edit the DOSBox config file (don't know what or where it is on Mac) to set output=overlay. I agree that SCUMMVM is worth checking out. I've used recent versions to play Full Throttle and it does a pretty good job now. I reported a few minor bugs a while back with FT in SCUMMVM that …

Their competitors have not "died out". They were either bought out (Ensoniq) or muscled out (Aureal) by Creative. On-board codecs aren't as bad as they were a couple years ago. In addition, Creative hasn't really added many new features to their cards in that time. People are starting to figure this …
