Greetings!

Some of you may have read my posts concerning my hunt for my very first sound card which came in a Reveal Multimedia Upgrade Kit. It was determined to be some flavor of Opti chip with an OPL and either a Crystal or Analog Devices codec chip. I got my hands on a similar card from 1995 which is two years too late. However, I scored a Diamond Sonic Sound card, which according to Dos Days, came out the same year I got my first PC, a 486SX/33 with the Reveal kit. I have seen pics of Reveal cards that look exactly like this Diamond card. So, this must be it!!! I believe that mine was a Televideo Multimedia stickered version. I see floppies for sale out there, but $25 is a lot for floppies which might not even work after all of these years. However, seeing pics of the Televideo driver floppy gives a familiar feeling.

I know that there are drivers out there for the chipset, though I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find the actual Diamond version of the k27-pro16 drivers? If not, I'll use whatever drivers I can locate. I need them for MS-DOS and Windows 3.x as I will probably not put it in a Win9x machine.

Many thanks!!!
