Amazing shit. I knowed bfor i start to build this pc, it will be horrible.
4x Win98 setup... a lot of freezes and bluescreens, but finally i installed all.
I really hate the Sischipset.
But finally the MIDI in Blood works. Also FX Sound. Without some settings.
Just install the driver and start the Game.
So... i have to try a new driver with the nforce board.
But i guess it will not work 🙁

Ok, i tried it with a SIS chipset. It works. so Nforce dont support MIDI.
Seems like i have to change the motherboard, even its not really an option.
I didnt found a perfect board. But if i have a try, then with the VIA P4XB-M VA536.
Somebody knows the CPU support of this board?
I need minimum 2Ghz, but a TDP under 50W.
If a CPU is available i will have try with it.

So, iam not done yet. Midi works in Blood, but Carmageddon dont find a Midi device.
I would start the Games in Wind 98 SE. Actually the Sockel A system and Sis chipset works fine.
I have a question.

Is this right what i wrote in Paint or not to finish my project?

I dont know. Seems like its a rumor @ carmafandom 😮
They wrote that his ears r aching bcoz of bad midi sound and u cant turn it off.... 😮

I mean, i like my progress that in blood works Midi fine. But if Carma really works with Midi devices then i won my game what i play since 8 ears or so.
