Have you tried taking out the VRAM expansion chips? I have a few ViRGE cards that didn't work correctly until i removed them.

Re: Dungeon Keeper Windows version AWE32/64
Posted on 2023-07-30, 12:40
I think I got it working. I ended up removing my SB16 and reset the resource values for the AWE (I5 D1 H5). I also managed to change the wavetable from '640' to '620'. I found a few conditions that need to be met for the SFX to play: The AWE needs to be selected as the default sound device in the …
Dungeon Keeper Windows version AWE32/64
Posted on 2023-07-29, 13:52
I've been trying to get the Windows version of Dungeon Keeper to use the *.sbk files on my AWE64 Value. The closest I've gotten it to working is doing a 'Have Disk' install of the AWE drivers and starting the game without rebooting. When I reboot, it stops working again.

I follow the Discord group for the community patch 1.5 found here: https://wiredforwar.org/topic/167/announcing-community-patch-1-5-godsend . However, I would prefer to use my original discs.

Without any major spoilers, how do I check if my system is compatible with this game? I have tested it on …

I've been trying to get Machines to work on my Viper V550 on Win98SE. The older Diamond drivers up to version 4.10.01.0255 work, but the control panel included doesn't work when DirectX 7 or greater is installed. The Detonator drivers on vogonsdrivers cause the game to crash when entering the …
Front Page Sports: Golf crashing on Audigy
Posted on 2023-06-26, 14:08
For some reason, the game causes a blue screen when it tries to play sound after it loads the course. It works with no issues on my Sound Blaster Live and older. I have tried an Audigy and an Audigy 2. Turning off hardware acceleration stopped the crashing, but no sound played.

We have some older drivers you could try. You can also try using different versions of the A3D API files (aka A3D Support Files). http://www.vogonsdrivers.com/index.php?catid=42&menustate=39,37 But I've always found the Vortex cards/drivers to be buggy. It's hard to say if you are having hardware …

Various problems with Vortex 2

I recently acquired a Turtle Beach Montego II, and I've been having some issues with it. In Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II with A3D enabled, the spatial audio sounds bugged (sound effects drop out/play from the wrong location). This issue is particularly noticeable with headphones. I did make sure to …

Sorry for the long wait, running bsetup.exe and changing the graphics mode to 'screen-buffer' mode should solve your problem. I recommend also trying the VESA modes, as they provide higher resolution options.
MIDI music doesn't play Oregon Trail 1.2 when using 16bit exe

I can't seem to get the MIDI music to play on the 1993 version of The Oregon Trail for Windows. The digital music works, but the 3 MIDI tracks don't play. The music plays under Windows 98SE using the 32bit exe, but not the 16bit one.
