So I've been messing around with DOS games inside Windows 9X to see what my options are for playing DOS games in Windows. The idea in theory was good but the result so far has been worst than expected. The best i can get in Sound Blaster digital samples in the games i tested with.
I'm assuming that when using a WDM driver the OS present SB16 emulation to the application and only SB16. So in my test case i tried Wolfenstien 3D and DOOM. Which both work but only have sound effects no music, i take it that normally these games would address a sound card directly from the VDM when running in Windows and that how you get sound with music synthesis?
Just a bit confused how this is all supposed to work, in my case i have a USB sound device and that's the only option available to me so I've ruled out DOS games on this system for now unfortunately 🙁
