Watched Enola Holmes and The Bob's Burgers movie with the wife while I installed some more games on the Versa M/75 and worked on cracking the Crystal CS4231 WSS system. I think I'm getting close. Found a thread on here about the Zenith Z-note with the same chip....I think I may have heard a chirp of a gun from Doom at one point.
Right now I'm using WSSXLAT.EXE from WSS 2.0 setup like this...
DEVICE=C:\WSS\EMM386.EXE 4096 RAM - because 4MB should be enough EMS for the hooks + Sierra games
DEVICE=C:\WSS\WSSXLAT.EXE sbio=220 irq=10 dma=1
SET BLASTER=a220 i10 d1 t1
Kind of working/testing/experimenthing through this thread - Trying to find drivers for a Zenith Data Systems laptop
At some point I'll try and get the Adlib emulation going with WinGroove.....might be able to run Monkey Island and some others with that with actual music on this laptop - pretty killer since it's a tri-boot setup (DOS/Win311fw/Win95). Should be okay enough to tide me over until I build a Cardbarker, that other card a guy here is working on, or somehow find a Panasonic CF-VEW211, or figure out the output pinout on my KXL-D20 Sound/SCSI Card.
Wow, I just sold a Versa M/75 earlier this year. I think I had the sound effects working in DOOM under Win95-DOS, with the original NEC-provided Crystal drivers. Unfortunately I set it up several years ago (before I started saving drivers), so I've since lost those drivers.
Found a way to mount a 486 heatsink to a 386DX/486DLC, without any sticky substances:

Overclocked this same 386DX-25 chip to 40 mhz. It's perfectly stable with the heatsink+fan, and makes for a maxed-out 1988 build when paired with a PVGA1A video card.
Finally found a suitable motherboard for a 486DLC + VLB build. It's 386, 486, VLB and plays DOOM at max details!
