Can you directly click on them? I have mediafire, which is great, but it takes you to a site which makes it a little bit harder for people to quickly access stuff. Another site to sign up 🙁

I give up, I can't attach the files... The file is .mp3 and less than 5MB, so I don't see why it wouldn't work 🙁

Sure! SB Pro recordings are already out and about. Just need to find my past posts :P Ran into an issue with Space Quest 4. Whenever there is a digital sound effect or speech, the volume goes down. But if there is just music, it's really really loud. Another thing I noticed is that Space Quest 4 has …

Remember that the 15 pin connector supported 2 joysticks and a total of 4 buttons. Sticks with hat and rudder simply used the buttons and axis of the 2nd joystick (which wasn't connected). Gravis made a futuristic looking one. I had one. It has a nice base, a hat, flight stick, and a little wheel …

I now configured the PAS16 again. This time, as PAS + Soundblaster. And in Descent and SQ4, if I select Sound Blaster for Sound, the speed is now correct. The music portion of the PAS16 is just like any other OPL3 card. It just works. I doubt there would be any audible differences between the …

Yea it's how Creative wrote the site. If you close the browser and try the link you get to the support main page. But still, it's not hard to figure out the navigation 😁

Message to Cloudschatze: Re: "Try a DMA setting of 3 or 5, along with IRQ 7." Using the PAS16 install.exe utility, I tried these values, and also a lot of other combination values as well. Unfortunately, whenever I use the PAS program called "play.exe" located inside the c:\proaudio folder to play …

Ah thanks, that worked! I put all the files into a single folder. I like the install option, you can "just" init the card. I set it up as PAS only (no SB emulation) and Descent picked it up right away. So did SQ4 and Pinball Fantasies. FM is fine, but the speech was way to fast (like fast forwarding …

Download what? all there is in that link is a menu to sound cards that none of which are sb16 cards. It's not hard to figure out. If uploading files to VOGONS wouldn't crash all the time, I could put them here... Follow the navigation. It goes like Sound Blaster > Others > Archive > SB16 > Select …

Yea the Sidewinders are quite special. Under Windows however, they are fully digital or something like that. Some other bits I remember: There was a Competition Pro type joystick with 15pin connector. You could also get an ISA card which had 2x 9 pin connectors (C64, Mega Drive, Amiga) and use those …

Well that sounds odd, as the wavetable boards should sound the same, no matter what host card you are using...

I never had this happen to me. There a few things that can help though: In BIOS disable any unused resources such as printer and serial ports, floppy port if you don't use it, USB if you don't use it. There is also a PnP option (Auto/Manual) and Reset somethingsomething (seems to reallocate …
