So the secret it seems was to hav the game data on the disc and not just the music, and not bother with WINQUAKE but only use the DOS version. Odd but there you go.

Quake CD Music
Posted on 2018-08-12, 21:43
I have burned the soundtrack to a CD which runs in the CD player. I boot up Quake. The launch monitor recognises there's a CD in the tray, but no music is played when I proceed. Sound effects are fine, though. I'm using an AWE64 and Windows 98. What am I missing, folks?
Elder Scrolls Arena DOS sound and music

Does anyone know how to get the sound and music running? I've got AWE64 Blaster settings in AUTOEXEC.BAT and I use INSTALL.EXE to set sound and music to SB16, but it simply loads entirely mute. It's really irritating that all the guides online are about DOSBox!

How to install Elder Scrolls Arena CD on Windows 98?
Posted on 2018-08-08, 08:13
The installation program has 'install' greyed out. The boot Floppy option seems to make a shoddy MS-DOS disk that throws up tons of error messages about incomplete files and can't see my optical drive. Anyone have a solution? I'm on a P3 with 512MB RAM. Thanks

Ok, I figured out I need to set the switches in Autoexec.bat to get General Midi working. Now, I get music in the test if I use AWE32, but launching the game says AWE32 not detected. Is this your current state of affairs? AWE32 music works in Duke3D setup but not in the game? Do you have other …

Nobody got any suggestions at all? It's definitely an AWE64, AWEUTIL is set to S, and it still can't see AWE32.

I just found this in an online article: PROBLEM -- System hangs when you play games under MIDI Emulation. CAUSE -- 1. AWEUTIL cannot co-exist with games that use DOS extender. 2. Some games require a MPU-401 'Smart' mode that is different from the UART mode used by your audio card. So, you have to …

1. Run AWEUTIL /S in Autoexec.bat to initialize the music portion of the card. Already done. I'm about to post the contents of the files requested above. 2. Choose AWE32 in the games; do not choose General MIDI - this requires emulation and the emulation driver in DOS is buggy and limited. As I …

Hi all, I'm having trouble getting music running properly for Duke Nukem 3D on DOS 6.22. I use the setup program and set sound as Sound Blaster, test it, all good. I set music as AWE32, and it says no AWE32 detected. I've tried all the different ports selectable. Setting to Wave Blaster or a General …

Hi all, Figured it out! It wasn't the jumpers, but there was a typo in autoexec.bat. It's recognising the drive. Although, it insists on assigning it as drive E. How do I force it to D?

Thanks jesolo, I'll try that when I'm next in front of the machine. My CD drive is on secondary Master right now. It has no bridging bit for the jumpers present, do you know what setting it should be? There's nothing on the drive case itself...

It works fine under 98, yeah. I spotted that typo and CDPRO is on C. There are no jumpers on the drive.
