Just buy a female dupont pinsocket and cut it down into 2 2 pin wide pieces. Solder 2 wires to it and you are set. You might need to sand down the sides a little more than you can cut without damaging the pins you want to preserve. This is the best method without crimping that I know.

The point is that they are always recommended as a starting point and most of the people come back with a catalog of problems. It's not about your or my favorite, it's a 100% working card. You can choose to use a ZS, if you don't give a crap about CD's or routing the PC speaker back into the line in …

Btw have similar issues with the SB Live Platinum (SB 4760). The original CD did not come with the vxd Drivers, so I grabbed the Live 1024! CD. Windows works 100%, all inputs and outputs work. Game performance is way worse than the Audigy2, but the DOS side again has no line-in, CD audio works. I …

I finally found some Audigy 1s. They often list them as SB1394. But still the question if the basic Audigy2 isn't just a re-released Audigy1. It has all the same features and on first glance they look like a 99% match.

Are you talking about the basic Audigy2? I have problems getting the line-in and cd-in to work in DOS with the patch. Joseph_Joestar did change up more for the Audigy ZS than just unmuting it, it has no line-in on the card and just a spdif for the cd audio. He did provide the code for the patch, but …

Yep just in DOS and I launch the AUDIGY12.EXE at the end of my autoexec with a 3 second wait in between (https://www.plop.at/en/dostools.html). Otherwise it would execute before the driver was loaded. The normal DOS sound works fine, I just need to inject CD audio and the PC speaker into the card. …

I do not get CD/MIC/LINE-IN. In Windows it's all working. Audigy 2 SB0240 In the sbemixer it's all unmuted and on 100% volume. I think I need find some documentation for the code, so I can change the launcher for the other Audigy cards.

I can only find one driver package for the 4670, but that does only contain wdm drivers. The one vxd driver that is installing SB 16 Emulation is the Live 1024, but that does fail to output anything in Windows. It does not show any error in the device manager, but when I want to play a windows sound …

Speaking of the sc55, I could get the sc880 for a reasonable price. This is a sc88pro in a rack or am I mislead somehow?

I think they mean F and then R. Sorry I have no gpu in my Win98 PC at the moment, I would have checked that out otherwise. The combinations Sounds awkward I know. I did not know that you could press all modifiers at once on a Keyboard matrix.

Yes I was thinking about the non steam version. I was still playing on 1.5 and other mods on WON2 about 12 years ago and I just checked, they are still going. I would love to join some MOD games. There are so many that where finished so late, that they where never played online.

I could swear that the 1.0 release was early enough, but I can not get my scratched cd to work anymore. /EDIT by Dosfreak removed mention of where to acquire copyrighted software. Use your own archives.

Which game is it? Maybe there is a hidden counter in the game or we can hack one into it.

Try a shortcut with -width 512 -height 383 maybe it's just -w -h. It's been a while. When you got the original HL release you can go as low as 320p just in the options.

You can try switching back when you got the Rudolf Loew sata patch installed. Otherwise it's legacy only, but that is plenty fast for win9x.

Thank you for taking the time Shponglefan. It kind of works with the CM-32L and a SoundBlaster, but for some odd reason Rayden has no lightning sound on his special move and some other missing things and there is also the option with only Roland . And since nothing changes on the Midi side compared …
