-Some of the audio tests in dxdiag are heavily distorted. All sound I've encountered in apps otherwise is fine. Maybe fixed with other SB16 drivers.
Using only DX5 solves these distortions (all 8 bit sound playback is affected and also games that use these, e.g. at least Fin Fin on Teo V1.5 and V3.5).
I've tried SB16 drivers (rev 14 and rev 16), but only DX5 solved this.
BTW, DX5 ships no dxdiag.exe, but the extracted files from DX6 works fine for DX5 too and does NOT crash when leaving dxdiag.exe used with DX5.

When I DISABLE (=false) the ide ports the exclamation mark is gone in the device manager (driver still visible), but I',m still stuck to compatibility mode 🙁

I've tried Fin Fin on Teo V1.5 and V3.5 and Creatures 1.04 (all patches applied) successfully yet (max cpu cycle limiting is required for me to avoid ab16 stuttering, e.g. 32768)
For other drivers I used the latest s3 trio 32 driver from s3graphics.com (legacy archive) and the latest 3dfx voodoo driver (from "the guru of 3d"), all on windows 95c.
One day was unfortunately not enough for me yet:-(
Good luck!
