To be sure, you're using these on 98 SE, right? What are you using to test audio output?

Yes, sorry. Windows 98 SE. Just using Windows sounds to test.

Are the speakers connected to the speaker output jack and not line-out? AFAIK, you don't get any sound if the speakers are connected to the wrong jack...
And you're sure the sound isn't muted in the Mixer control panel?

Your driver CD should also work in 98SE, by the way.

It might just be the VxD drivers, though. (The WDM drivers would be preferable from a stability standpoint, though I recall the audio from Grim Fandango was distorted unless I used the VxDs.)

Probably the easiest way to establish if the card is bad is to see if it works with the VxDs, or you can try booting up a live Linux distro. But I think Mr. yawetaG's suggestions make sense; if there was something seriously wrong with the card, I would expect that you'd be getting some kind of error message.

Thanks for the advice everyone. It was most likely a bad card I think. I replaced it with an Ensoniq ES1371 card and it works perfectly.

The original card was a CT4810, so only had one audio output.
