Hey guys! Hope everybody is doing very well today! I arrive to this forum today with an issue with a Soundblaster CT4170 sound card that is in an old Germane Systems Pentium III machine I bought locally from someone for $5. It originally had Windows NT 4.0, but I put Windows 98SE on it thanks to assistance from my brother. It will be the machine where I play my old childhood games on, but right now, I cannot. Why? My sound is not working right! While the OS automatically picked up the correct driver after I powered it on at one point, I'm noticing that the sound is like, lagging very badly. That issue happens on pure Windows, but when I play a DOS game like Lemmings, 0 issues. I tried everything from trying out different drivers from the existing list, to grabbing the actual driver from the Creative website as well as on driver guide, but after trying out a few driver files, nothing is really panning out. Has anyone gotten around this problem? Is there a much better working driver I need to get? Thanks guys in advance!
