Is there a guide anywhere as to which DOS drivers are for which SB16 cards? I have the following and I'm not sure if they are fully PnP, or which TSRs/Drivers/Variables are needed for which.

Specifically, I want to have the drivers ready for the following:

CT2290
CT2890
CT2980

Anyone can help?

The basic DOS drivers for all Sound Blaster 16 ISA cards are the same and are available on Creative's website (including all the utilities like the mixer utility).
However, the older drivers (like CT-VOICE.DRV) are rarely used by later DOS games.
In order for your game to work with any sound card under DOS, the game itself must provide support for that sound card (most games did have either have Adlib or Sound Blaster support).
As for Plug n Play, all of the above models are Plug n Play, which is also available for download from Creative's website.
