I mean this old game with the virtual guitar pick and songs from Aerosmith. Is there any way to get this going on windows xp or windows 98 with a sb16 pci soundboard? I can't get a sound from this vpick they included in the package...and it was such a fun in those days.
Probably the VPick has just gone. I remember running the game in Win95 fine, there's no reason it wouldn't work in 98 unless your VPick was dead. You might just want to try fabbing something of your own -- open the pick up, see which pins are leading where, get a parallel port connector, and hook some wires up to it. 😀
Yes, it’s my fault.
I think the problem is the pci soundboard. Unfortunately my mainboard doesn't have an ISA slot anymore so i can't use my old isa soundboard.
I have this, and actually have it up and running under win95 on my retro machine. However, I also have the guitar controller and can't get it to work with the game. There was something that had to be done to the .ini file to make the guitar work instead of the vpick, but I can't find info on it anywhere. Does anyone know where I can find info on this?
