I use DOXBOX-X to play the dos games and run the windows 95 OS.

For dos games, DOSBOX-X + loopMidi + Yamaha S-YXG50 can output the midi music into Yamaha S-YXG50 softsynthesizer. But for windows 95, the Midi music will only played by Microsoft Media player. Is possible to play the Midi music with Yamaha S-YXG50 softsynthesizer?

Please check the DOSBox-X Win95 installation guide on the wiki. It mentions setting up MIDI in Win95 to use 'external' (to Win95) midi.

Thank you very much for the tip. Set the midi device to external and it works properly.
