I appreciate the help fellas. I never owned a PC back in the day. Part of the reason I'm into it now. Always wanted one. But sound cards are my Kryptonite. So I guess I need to locate this Soundblaster Pro 2 software.

Soundblaster Pro 2 CT1600: Need help locating drivers for Win98

I see a few SB Pro 2 card drivers posted over at the Vogons Driver library. But I have no idea if any are what I need. I'm also not sure if I have to install drivers in Win98SE and DOS seperately, or if I only need to install drivers in windows. Help would be MUCH appreciated.

Weird thing happened. Somehow I actually got it to work. I decided to make 2 sets of floppies for the game. One .img set made in Magic ISO, and one .IMA set made in WinImage. I installed the first disk with the WinImage disk. The second Disk wouldn't work with the WinImage set, so I had to use the …

Big part of the problem is I'm new to this. I'm just trying to go by the Phils Computer Lab GOTEK video tutorial. On there he would copy paste regular files like you mentioned. However, for floppy images he would right click a directory and "write" them. To me this seemed like the same concept as …

Update 3862.5: Managed to write Disk 1 and actually get a install screen. I installed these files on Disk 1 of the GOTEK. deice.exe game.1 game.dat install.bat That got me as far as completely installing Disk 1, and being prompted to insert Disk 2 and hit Enter. So I did that and it did not work. …

Well.... messed around with this for like 3 hours today and made little to no progress. Tried WinImage and MagicISO. Both of which I am pretty certain can do what I want, but I can't get it working. So saving a game.1 file in WinImage as an image file does not work. The problem I am having is that …

So you're using the original Gotek firmware still ? If yes, you can try creating you own floppy images using WinÍmage. Open it, klick on "new" and drag your games files into it and save. After this, you can write them to the Gotek. But beware, the original Gotek software is very restrictive in …

I actually think I have my GOTEK set up properly. I used the tutorial from Phils website to get it all prepared. Setting up the USB was a breeze. At this point I know I have to right click on one of the 99 directories in my USB, and simply "write image" instead of just copying files. My issue is …

So I have this GOTEK device. I thought it would be nice to use instead of my old floppy drive, because some of my old games don't seem to work right. So I went online to one of those abandonware sites to try and get a few floppy images to try on my win 98se machine. None of the files are in .img …

Ok, the saga continues. Decided to just edit this post instead of make a new one. I can't get the tomb raider glide patch to work. From my understanding since I have a Voodoo3 3000, I need to use the TomBrush patch. So I place that in the TOMBRAID directory. Detete TOMB.exe, and rename TomBrush to …
