Hi all
i just "reactivated" my old PC (ISA Soundblaster 16 PnP, 233 Mhz PII) to play some (really good) old Games. Most games are working fine, but i have problems with games using cd audio tracks as soundtrack. For example Monkey Island 1 with cd audio.
Under 98 (with scummVM) everything works fine; the tracks are played correctly via audio cable. But under DOS I can't hear anything.
Greetings

In DOS your sound card and it's drivers are responsible for CD-audio. You might get audio from your SB16 without using any drivers at all for some programs, but others will require a full DOS driver install (complete with a mixer program that you will probably have to start and configure) before you get CD audio.
Ok, thanks for the hint!
I'll search drivers and mixer software...but i'm not really optimistic to find something for this old card...
Perhaps you forgot to connect the cdrom drive's audio to the soundcard when reactivating your old pc ?
