You should be very happy with that card!

For Windows 98, don't use the drivers on the CD, install the latest Yamaha drivers: http://www.philscomputerlab.com/audician-32-plus.html

What is nice is that it also configures MS-DOS mode for you.

Could you please post the DOS mode drivers for those who aren't running Win9x? I understand the driver installer is Windows only.

The pure DOS drivers are on the CD image you can download.

Seems some games may to get problems with playing FM on 1st and DAC of 2nd SB compatible cards
"And sometimes a game would not play sound on a card that had been selected by setting blaster variable and pointing at the right resources."

Also, as Emu chip was reported having sometimes issues, hence AWE32-SB32 are doubtful and the only reliable way stays noisy SB16 cards. damn
