Hello everyone,
After my frustrating attempt to upgrade my PCI video card on my SS7 system, I finally gave up and ended up finding a motherboard with both ISA and AGP slots, the Epox ep-7kxa. It came with a 750mhz Athlon classic and an Geforce 4 MX4000 AGP (not what I'd like to have but it works for now).
System is running good, except for a little problem: My AWE64 Gold ISA card is not fully working on Windows 98. I can only hear MIDI music, but cannot play sound effects (it says there is no device to reproduce sounds), so I can't even open wav files or test any sound. Games also have no sound and dxdiag only lists the music tab.
This ISA card was working fine without any extra drivers on my previous system (K6-2 450mhz with V72MA motherboard). Already tried disabling the onboard sound and legacy sound support in BIOS but still didn't work.
Anyone has any idea of what could I be missing here? Is there any special BIOS configuration I need to do in order to make it work?
Thanks in advance 😀
