Can someone point me to DOS drivers for this card?

Whats your opinion on this sound card? quality of OPL3 compatible sound? Any problems with games?

Thanks

Try the ALS007/ALS100 drivers.

Both unisound and ALS007 drivers work, but I got another problem. In Wolfenstein 3D the fm music works but sound fx is played only one (for example gun sound) then all sound fx is cut off. It is AMD 386DX40 with 16MB of RAM.

Any ideas?

Sounds like a DMA conflict. Make sure nothing else is using the same DMA channel the card is.

It was actually IRQ conflict. Once I configured the soundcard with a different IRQ the problem has been fixed. I kinda like more ALS drivers, but having a modern alternative is always nice...
