Re: Sound Card Recordings

OK, thanks a lot for the advice. BTW, where did you get the ESS DOS mixer program? I have managed to track down the DOS PnP config util, and also the Win VxD on driverguide. I can get the card to function correctly in both pure DOS and Windows 98. Inside Win98, if I setup Doom, I must set both the …

What I hope to see from someone else maybe, just curious: ... -ESS Hardware Wavetable ... Gerwin, what exactly do you mean by ESS hardware wavetable? I just received 3 ESS cards. I have tested them inside Windows 98. For each card, Win98 automatically detected them, and installed the software from …

I have found another way of tweaking this board. It can accept either 72 pin DIMMs, or SDRAM. Up to now, I was using PC-133 SDRAM. Now, I have removed this type of memory, and installed some 72 pin FPM DIMMs. I also set the BIOS timings to "slow". Using a P90 - 50mhz fsb - multi 1.5, I get these …

The mmx scores are very high! My Pentium is non MMX and I'm surprised you get such a high score with both Caches turned off. I thought that the MMX are the same as a Pentium but with MMX extensions, but looks like Intel has tweaked a bit more... I am unable to answer this, because of ignorance! : …

I did a few more tests. I increased the FSB to 75 and also 83. P233, 75mhz fsb, multi 3.5 L1 disabled = 41.6, L1+L2 disabled = 20.0 83mhz (slow BIOS timings), multi 3.5 L1 disabled = 47.6, L1+L2 disabled = 17.5 83mhz (faster BIOS timings), multi 3.5 L1 disabled = 47.6, L1+L2 disabled = 21.7 The full …

I have been inspired by all of your Pentium slow down projects. I have just tested a socket 7 mobo; MSI MS5158. It's just a regular socket 7, with no AGP. In the BIOS, you can disable L1 and also L2 cache. Is this normal for most socket 7 boards? I tested this board with a S3 PCI video card. I used …

I tried Prince of Persia, and found that it automatically detected the CM/S card. I'm not sure if something is wrong, but the music sounded a bit strange. The notes were a bit "muddled up". Some kind of timing problem, perhaps? Anyway, I have done another CM/S recording. It is Silpheed. Looking at …

I can actually make myself useful! :shocked: I currently have a Creative Gameblaster (CM/S) sound card installed. Below is a mobygames list of CM/S supported games. What game(s) do you want me to make a recording of? http://www.mobygames.com/attribute/sheet/attributeId,42/offset,0/p,2/so,0a/ I have …

^ Thanks very much for the info and advice. Really appreciate it. BTW, I made 2 more recordings. Both with Audacity recording set to "line in", rather than "what u hear". The first new recording I set the recording level to default, which was 0.75 I think. (The recording slider bar was about 3/4 …
