I am building a pentium 75mhz machine to play namely sierra sci games built for Windows 3.x (Torin's passage, Phantasmagoria, etc. etc.) Basically it's a Multimedia PC 3 computer.
I noticed that their DOS installs support MS Windows Sound System, so for a change of pace, I went for this card. The actual machine hasn't come in the mail yet, but I have the card.
So this is the MS WSS sound card from 1992 with the rca outputs. By MPC-2 cable, I mean that cord that connects the CD-ROM drive to the sound card. It's usually grey, with one end black, and the other end white.
What's wrong is the WSS card appears to be missing a female port to accept the cable, so, connection there is not happening. Will this be an issue for sound on this machine?
I'm guessing by the mid-nineties, the cd-roms could send their sound data through the bus, but, I figured I'd ask for any thoughts.
