I bought an ES1868F for older SB Pro support, to go alongside my CT2230 SB16. I currently have Windows 95 installed and am wondering if it's possible to install the ESS drivers in MS-DOS mode only?
Using the drivers on philscomputerlab: https://www.philscomputerlab.com/ess-audiodrive-es1868.html
185xw95.zip - gives driver files usable in Win95 only - after I install in Win95 is there a way to make the card work in DOS mode?
185xdos.zip - tried using this in MS-DOS mode and it just hangs after I type 'install' - just reads "ES1868 DOS Installation Program V2.0" and doesn't progress (tried using setver 6.22 but no change)
^ I'm assuming the DOS driver will only work in pure DOS (e.g. 6.22)? Any way to install this in MS-DOS mode of Win95?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! If all else fails, I'll probably just install MS-DOS 6.22 and use that for a while (need this card to play UFO Enemy Unknown without the audio clicking glitch from the SB16!)
