Hello. Does anybody have Manual for Sound Commander EX (8-bit ISA sound blaster clone, half size)?
It is nice card and it fits my Toshiba T3100E, but I can't make MIDI port and Joystick work...
Don't know how to move jumpers in correct way or does it ever apply to MIDI/Joystick port there?
Thanks in advance!

Hello, I have the same card with the OEM driver disks. Is the problem with the MIDI port still present?

I don't remember now to be honest. This card is not in use now. Does your port work as it should?
I think it might not support mpu-401 mode

Could you make images of those disks and post them here so we can upload them to vogonsdrivers?

I can try to rip the files and put them in directories, maybe even the manual if it's included... I have the card in my i486 DX2 and well... I have to see how I can get the data onto my PC, maybe with an IDE2Flash adapter, I'm a bit limited with the i486... you can take a look at the thing here 😀 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vUaI0luvyY
