i recently dug up my old pentium celeron with a sound blaster pci 128,detected as a model with an ensoniq chip.i installed it fine on windows 98,and all windows games have sound and music correctly,but many many dos games refuse to have sound or music.when i go to the setup for those games,even if i choose the right settings(as stated on the autoexec:dma 200,irq 7,dma 1)many games have garbled sound or no sound at all,while other are ok.for example,games like duke nukem 3d works perfectly(i'm talking about running them in either pure dos or not) while death rally has sound at the beginning,then it stops.if i change the irq from 7 to 5,death rally has sound and music ,but in a very slow speed.the game itself runs fine,but the sound and music are super slow.lastly,there are games liek earthwormjim 2,that just refuse to have sound.some say its just the audio card that is not very good in dos,but i hope that there's some other solution.any help?
