I have to say the card doesn't support Win 3.11. I bought this card back in 2003. Here is the original driver floppy and the readme file included in the disk. If anyone needs the content, I'll upload it. tenda.jpg RELEASE.TXT BTW, the card has nothing to do with Realtek RTL8139D, it's actually a …

OH!!!!!! FINALLY I MANAGE TO MAKE IT WORKING!!!!! The problem is with the modded version of SETUPDS.EXE. I thought I have to use the ICH2 version, since I use the CUSL2-C mobo. The standard SETUPDS has all the settings related to SB greyed out. So I thought it wouldn't work. The turning point is …

So, you can try disable DSDMA at first, run SetupDS to get the UI, save and exit, then hand-edit the INI file and restore DSDMA in Autoexec. The thing is: 1. I can't use SETUPDS /S to initialize the card, it brings up the configuration screen just like I run it without the /S option. 2. SETUPDS …

Oh, I have to say maybe the issue is related to the line "SETUPDS /s". I can't just initialize the card without bringing up the configuration screen. Both "SETUPDS /s" and "SETUPDS" do the same thing and I can't save any changes duo to the IRQ/DMA error. So the DSDMA issue could be caused by not …

I just bought a Hoontech SoundTrack i-Phone Digital XG ymf754. I tried all the procedure above again. This time DSDMA was loaded without issue, no system freeze, no "CODEC might not be connected" error etc. I checked it via "mem /c/p" and it's there. However, the setupds behaved the same as before. …

I still think you should try Letter Assign : http://www.vogonsdrivers.com/getfile.php?fileid=2131&menustate=0 Yes, Letter Assign works. It has some disadvantages though, being a windows program(the dos version needs running in pure dos) and cannot be launched via a batch file. And it needs a reboot …

This doesn't answer your question, but I use Notepad++ instead of muddling through notepad's shortcomings. 5.9.8 is the last supported version for 9x. https://web.archive.org/web/20200219083430/https://notepad-plus-plus.org/repository/5.x/5.9.8/ Seems like this is the only way of solving it.
