Have you tried using the Intel Configuration Utility (ICU) to init the PnP card under DOS?

Just a shot in the dark: have you tried changing the "Plug and Play OS" BIOS setting (if your system has one)? On some systems, only devices necessary to boot will be initialised when it is set to Yes, leaving everything else to the operating system.

Hi,

i'm running a Tualatin System with a ISA Slot,
i can't get the TT1816 with ADI1816 Driver for DOS Detectet.
The Driver tells me the BIOS has'nt detectet the PnP Card 🙁
It works fine under Windows ME.

AD1816 based cards needs it's PNP id in initialization string in config.sys file.

1DEVICE=AD1815_6 [switches]

where

1/ID     Use specified Vendor ID

Just look into README.TXT from Base1_Drv_dos_9.2.exe

You have to figure out which ID has your card. Simplest way is to run Speedsys v4.78 in plain DOS.

According to linux source https://searchcode.com/codesearch/view/2073995/ it should be one of the following:

1static struct pnp_card_device_id snd_ad1816a_pnpids[] = {
2	/* Analog Devices AD1815 */
3	{ .id = "ADS7150", .devs = { { .id = "ADS7150" }, { .id = "ADS7151" } } },
4	/* Analog Device AD1816? */
5	{ .id = "ADS7180", .devs = { { .id = "ADS7180" }, { .id = "ADS7181" } } },
6	/* Analog Devices AD1816A - added by Kenneth Platz <kxp@atl.hp.com> */
7	{ .id = "ADS7181", .devs = { { .id = "ADS7180" }, { .id = "ADS7181" } } },
8	/* Analog Devices AD1816A - Aztech/Newcom SC-16 3D */
9	{ .id = "AZT1022", .devs = { { .id = "AZT1018" }, { .id = "AZT2002" } } },
10	/* Highscreen Sound-Boostar 16 3D - added by Stefan Behnel */
11	{ .id = "LWC1061", .devs = { { .id = "ADS7180" }, { .id = "ADS7181" } } },
12	/* Highscreen Sound-Boostar 16 3D */
13	{ .id = "MDK1605", .devs = { { .id = "ADS7180" }, { .id = "ADS7181" } } },
14	/* Shark Predator ISA - added by Ken Arromdee */
15	{ .id = "SMM7180", .devs = { { .id = "ADS7180" }, { .id = "ADS7181" } } },
16	/* Analog Devices AD1816A - Terratec AudioSystem EWS64 S */
17	{ .id = "TER1112", .devs = { { .id = "ADS7180" }, { .id = "ADS7181" } } },
18	/* Analog Devices AD1816A - Terratec AudioSystem EWS64 S */
19	{ .id = "TER1112", .devs = { { .id = "TER1100" }, { .id = "TER1101" } } },
20	/* Analog Devices AD1816A - Terratec Base 64 */
21	{ .id = "TER1411", .devs = { { .id = "ADS7180" }, { .id = "ADS7181" } } },
22	/* end */
23	{ .id = "" }
24};

BTW. I have Highscreen Soundboostar 16 card (MDK1605) which seems to be clone of TT1816.
This card has very good compatibility with DOS titles (even Titus the fox is running with sound on my KT7A Barton build), however OPL3 compatibility is not that good (AT2 sounds incorrectly compared to YMF724).

Does not work with Intel ICU.
Damn it.

Also the ID and SN are in config.sys 😒

it just tells me BIOS can't find PNP Card.

PnP BIOS found.
No Plug and Play ISA Cards found by BIOS.
ADI-Board not detected.

EDIT: Plug & Play OS is disabled in BIOS.

Card works fine under Windows and Linux.. but MS-Dos.../9x DOS Mode..

My TT1816 works fine with ICU. But just for the record, my TT1816 has an AD18max10JS chip.

Did you tried Speedsys (ie. from Phil's DOS benchmark pack) ? Just run it in plain DOS, cancel tests and press I, to see PCI/ISA informations.

My looks like this

Maybe your DOS 8.0 from Windows Me is so different...

No, its just DOS 7 with HIMEM integrated to IO.SYS. 😀

It works now..
i had to get a different AD1815_6.SYS..
i was supplied with wrong Driver Disc..
The Card is a TerraTec Soundsystem Base 1. Not TT1816.

Now everything is fine 😀

Thanks for pointing to the right Direction.

Probably drivers from TT1816 disk should also work, if you changed Vendor string in config.sys to TER1411.

You're welcome ! I struggled with exactly the same problem
