the best in the mid 90s were always the sony or NEC... viewsonic didn't even come into the picture until the late 90s... no pun intended

well just put them all on 1 DVD or 2 CDs an overburn CD can be 722MB anyway my drivers disc is 718MB as it stands... unless some miracle happens that I get the SB16 multicd disks I'll take it all the way to 722MB 😉

oops... I misread... as far as ISA, the all of the PnP sound blasters ISAs have the crappy binaural 3D sound crap or you can have the "broken" QSound off of the SB16 ASP or AWE32.... it really only works in windows and requires driver hacks (a simple one too)

get any card that uses the Via Envy24 chip... the drivers allows for QSound there is at least one card that has a WB connector (Dynex... US only... cheap on ebay)
