I have an Audigy 1 (SB0090) in my main Win98 PC (Sempron 3300+, VIA K8M800 chipset, 512Mb, GeForce 4 Ti) with drivers set up using the instructions here: Guide: Installing Windows 9x and DOS drivers on Audigy cards (version 3.1)
It generally works fine, but in one or two late DOS games run under Windows I get a weird spluttering or ticking type noise at the end of every digital audio clip played in the game - e.g. at the end of each piece of speech. This is most annoying in Discworld, which is one of my favourites. Other games like Doom seem fine though. I've tried all the different SB, SB Pro, SB16 drivers within the game setup tool without any change.
The problematic games are fine when played in a fresh boot to DOS, so it is not the end of the world, but that does mean fiddling about mounting CD images (for CD check in the games) in DOS using SHSUCDX rather than simply being able to use Daemon tools.
Any ideas what might be causing this? Would it be worth trying a different driver version? Or are there other settings I should try changing?
