cannot fix boot problem about puppy linux, seem I cannot get away from the frugal system. Gave DamnSmallLinux a try and it worked good (some problem sharing grub on my non standard compact flash, but up to now it's fixed), I did a great DSL install on the "hdd", I'm eager to install snd-gusclassic …

alexanrs yeah you are right, but does it worth it ? must be a desing problem or a pinout limitation if they didnt make the emu8k available thru midi port on sb32, what do you think ? gdjacobs: was it possible natively or via an adaptor ?

brostenen thanks for the hint, I didnt knew there was a bootmanager on hirenbootcd, I'll give it a try. My understanding is that, unlike dos, linux need to be showed a vmlinuz or something like that to boot. I once used powerQuest bootMagic, anyone remember that ? a software name that make you …

Do you use defaults ? or exotic choices, such as grub to dos6.22 and win2000. I've heard there is partition switcher at boot. You speak :

thanks you very so much gdjacobs. So, why would someone having a sbpnp32 or sbawe32 would want a waveblaster ? The connector must be available for some reasons..

I was never a fan of the oplX synth circuitry. But yet I wonder how it is emulated nowaday. I've saw an sid chip png pinout schematic on someone here, a german dude that have an amazing computer collection, and it's still at the phd according to it's cv. My question is how does dosbox emulate that ? …

Thanks for all those "industrial solution" but those boads cost a fortune! Actually my project changed a bit when I realised I could run the sblive into "real" dos 7 and that live players by Lada Kopecky could drive the emu10000. Took me ages to find APSLIVE driver, got an old version, but that's …

Tetris such like Abuse used 2d tile to render the view. Doom use kind of 3d that somewhat work at places. Doom have not that honor, on my 60" screen at 320x200 it look confusing at best. Stuff like SnowBerry doom was juste awesome.

Jolaes76 : might be my understanding of the waveblaster daughterboard was wrong then. I always think the waveblaster was an emu8000 with some memory for the soundblaster 16, pretty much like an gus ace to a sb16. kamerat: who cares really about opl3 when you have emu8000... I actually do when I try …

wave blaster header ? wouldnt that make the emu8000 chip a bit redundant? Anyway you pinpointed right at it, when you only use the card with AMP.EXE by Lada Kopecky, you want hardware mixing and clean output.

I have a sbpnp32 and a sbawe32 and I could interchange them anytime and not tell the difference. The awe32 was supposed to come with a special effect controller. All special effect I've ever see was the reverb and the chorus who where also available on the pnp32. Am I missing anything ? Was is that …

I decided to clone those hard disk to compactflash from a pentium pro glxpro computer hosting a gus and a sbawe32. It was a dualboot dos622/nt2000 computer, mainly using nt2000 to drive the emu8000 for midi and share the network for the dos fat16 partitions. dos622 is used to play mods, run demos …
