Hello. This is my last last ditch effort to find what sound driver I should use when I get old computers. I've spent several hours looking through old posts and pages with google translate but can't seem to find the right driver or even what sound chip is being used int he computer. This is a Japanese only release from what I can tell and is a Fujitsu FMV Biblo NR IX 30L computer. I have gotten the graphics drivers, the chipset even but the sound still doesn't work. I've tried a few random drivers for computers at the time or ones that other old fujitsu laptops used at the time but no dice. If anyone has any suggestions for how I can find out what driver to use or just know what driver I should use I would appreciate it. Thank you for any help.

According to a quick Google search (FMV-BIBLO NRIX30L / FMVNR930L3) it seems to be an ESS ES1978S Maestro2E AudioDrive
