System: Dell Dimension 4300, C-media CMI8738 PCI audio, Geforce2 MX400
I'm hoping someone might be able to help me here. I've recently installed Win98 on my Dimension 4300 and wanted to play some Tomb Raider. However it is refusing to play ball with the sound card I have installed. I opted for the C-media as I had read the onboard soundcard of the 4300 is pretty dreadful and not very DOS friendly.
My only issue at the moment is that when I try to run the setup to detect the card, it identifies it as a Soundblaster 16, I go to test and instant lock up.
There's an old android saying which I believe is peculiarly appropriate here. In binary language it goes something like this: 001100111011000111100, which roughly translated means: "Don't stand around jabbering when you're in mortal danger!"
