Hello Guys! How are you?
I'm Gus and started retro pc gaming about 1 month ago.
Apologizes for coming here asking questions in my first post, but i'm getting spanking by MS-DOS sound and don`t know where else to ask.
I`m really amateur with MS-DOS in general.
So, basically my problem is: Don`t get sound sound effects in MS-DOS games using WIN98SE, just the music. In games like: POP AND JILL OF THE JUNGLE.
I have a ASUS P4P800 (chipset drivers installeds)
and a Sound Blaster Live! S0100 5.1
Installed all drivers from here:

(MS-DOS drivers too)
My device manager looks like this:
Forgot to print the DMA screen, but one is 01 and another is 07.
Duke Nukem 3D is the only game i got it all the sounds using the setup.exe
with this config:
Effects and musicsruns perfectly. But tell me, why this works just on IRQ 5 if the device manager tell me the IRQ is 7?
Really getting lost here.
Already tried SETBLASTER commands like SET BLASTER=A2240 ETC...
And already deactivated the serial ports on bios.
Here is my autoexec.bat
- mode con codepage prepare=((850) C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ega.cpi)
mode con codepage select=850
keyb br,,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\keyboard.sys
SET CTSYN=C:\WINDOWS
SET BLASTER=A240 I5 D1 H7 (tried a lot of variations already)
C:\ARQUIV~1\CREATIVE\DOSDRV\SBEINIT.COM
and config.sys:
- CE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\setver.exe
device=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\display.sys con=(ega,,1)
Country=055,850,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\country.sys
I think that's it, thank you very much guys, hope learning a lot of stuffs here 😀
