GoldStar is the "G" in LG. I (my parents) had a 286 DOS machine by them when I was little.
No sound card though...

Thanks for the link! there does not seem to be any FCC ID number on this sound card 😖 ... after more looking it could also be an Aztech sound 4 or sound 3 card! I may as well bin this one and buy a Yamaha OPL3 based ISA card 😁

I had a Packard Bell P150 system years ago and I can tell you they used the cheapest parts available. I wasn't able to carry anything over from that machine when I upgraded because it was all crap. The only thing I was able to get away with with that machine was kick up the P150 to a P200 after I read somewhere that all P150 chips are really P166's running with a slower bus and the vast majority of P166's can handle overclocking to 200mhz easily.

We had a Packard Bell dot matrix printer that didn't have a driver, after getting Windows 3.1 we needed "emulation" by using drivers for other printers by IBM and Epson, which would rarely work properly, or use "Generic Text-Only" which wouldn't allow graphics. 🙁

On our friends' Packard Bell computers with Win 3.1, I noticed they had their own Progman.exe. Don't remember though.

I know it's an old thread but for the sake of completeness and because I own one of this said "AZT3002 PNP" card here are the infos I found recently.

It seems these cards were generally marketed as Audio Telephony combo cards, and original Aztech driver page is https://web.archive.org/web/20030227125355/ht … hony_at3300.htm

Files have been mirrored here: https://ftp.zx.net.nz/pub/mirror/ftp.aztech.c … /Audtel/at3300/

It's what works best under Win98SE.

For MSDOS7 I'm using UNISOUND

Note: Under MSDOS, I failed to have AZTPNP.CFG correctly created with the official AT-3300 drivers and I failed to initialize FM sound with UNISOUND.
